I have to get darkroom chemistry. Film would also help! I should have ordered it from B&H today, and forgot! This will have to wait for a week or so, because I'm going to Florida soon.
Once I get some good images, I will post them.

Went looking for camera shop in Montpellier today.
When I saw a Leica S for sale at 16,500 Euro I reckoned I had found the place.
Full Nikon lineup for sale. Liked a 28mm Nikon G but a bit pricey for holiday snaps.

To be honest the only lens that could temp me would be the 28mm f 2.8 D.
Not even sure the extra 7mm over my 35mm would be worth paying for.
Will throw up a few when I get home next week.

I think 24mm would be better......
