2. These are all nice alfredo, but you really do B&W especially well.

That first one is especially emotive. The perspective and light are especially nice. I'm recc'ing for that one especially.

And I've managed to use the term "especially" in three out of four sentences. Awkward.

3. Thanks. My first love is black and white. I grew up in a black and white world.

My favorite camera was a Brownie Six-20. It felt good in my hands. I still gauge cameras by how they fit my hand. We had other Brownies, but this was the best in my opinion.

It's about a 20 minute drive from my home.

I noticed that they are now making professional photographers pay to use their grounds.

that prohibited use of photos for commercial purposes. How they would ever monitor that
I don't know. They also wouldn't allow tripods.

We had an old gingko tree at our house in Missouri. It was gorgeous in the fall.

If you are lucky you can catch the fall. The street is paved with gold that day.

We have one massive Ginkgo downtown. It's one of the biggest tree in the region. That neighborhood dates back to the late 1700's. It might be from one of the trees Henry Clay brought from Europe.
