While on my way, I encountered a man on the street and asked myself the 'GW-question' - "How will it look photographed?" More specific: "How will a stooped person on the street look photographed while the cam focuses on a poster (printed with a very coarse raster) some meters before him?"
This is the last pic exploring and showcasing the possibilities of the GX9 and some particular lenses. It's time for some hard boiled archi shots again - next stop: Utrecht Centraal.
Stoops :-
Bend one's head or body forwards and downwards:
Lower one's moral standards so far as to do something reprehensible
This is a favorite place of mine to go to when visiting my daughter /friends...it's the Bluewater Bridge in Sarnia........On the other side is Port Huron MI....
From Spring right up until the first snowfall it's populated by many tourists and locals.....the biggest attraction is the Chip Wagons, or the Fry Trucks....they do a booming business.......it's a beautiful spot year round! The locals walk their dogs along the boardwalk and there are lots of these signs posted..... :) There is also a Casino within walking distance!!

Stoop sitting. An important pastime during the summers in Newark. This was my grandmother's home. Oak trees out front. Sidewalk pavers jumbled from growing roots of trees. Typical Italians, with loads of fruit trees in the back yard. And grape vines, and home made wine.
I'm guessing this may be from around 1958, as my sister is wearing diapers. Far right is our mom, who would have been in her early 30s then. Far left is my dad's cousin, who would have been about age 14 judging by her looks here. I would be an usher at her wedding in about 8 years.
The post war years, with the soldiers and sailors home, trying to make something of the world they saved, for the families they were growing.
walking home from the BK loves MichaelJ & Prince event at Fort Green Park, I notice some art next to this stoop. I asked this gent if he created the art, which he didn't--we engaged in a conversation, then I asked to take his photo.

Peregrine Falcons of State Line Lookout
The Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus), also known as the Peregrine, and historically as the Duck Hawk in North America, is a widespread bird of prey in the family Falconidae. A large, crow-sized falcon, it has a blue-grey back, barred white underparts, and a black head and "moustache". As is typical of bird-eating raptors, Peregrine Falcons are sexually dimorphic, females being considerably larger than males. The Peregrine is renowned for its speed, reaching over 200 mph during its characteristic hunting stoop (high speed dive), making it the fastest member of the animal kingdom. According to a National Geographic TV program, the highest measured speed of a Peregrine Falcon is 242 mph.

State Line Lookout
State Line Lookout is a scenic overlook on the Palisades. It is situated at the highest point on the Palisades Cliffs (elevation 527 ft.), about a mile south of the New Jersey–New York state line. The area is open every day during daylight hours only. There is no fee for parking.
From September through early November, volunteer observers record the migration of raptors from the lookout point at State Line Lookout, from 9 AM to 4 PM, volunteer availability and weather conditions permitting.
Visitors are always welcome at the hawk watch (binoculars recommended).
State Line Hawk Watch, sponsored with the Hawk Migration Association of North America was founded in 1997 and is one of around a dozen official New Jersey hawk watch sites.
