A Study in Contrasts!

Meg,...by me.

Me,...by Meg

Lunch with Meg (my Number 2 daughter, then 14) at Ruby's Diner on the end of the Huntington Beach Pier yielded several snapshots. These pictures were taken last December with my Canon T-50 and 28mm FD Canon lens. Kodak Gold 400 film was in the camera.

Meg took a few snaps that day with the Holga.

(I know it was December by the stubble on my chinny chin chin. My beard was just recovering from having been shorn in solidarity with last year's "Movember" movement.)

What a lovely pair of images Brian. Love the waitress and the child in the hat behind you (even though you are fine looking chap even without the beard!! - Meg has caught a nice expression there. You can tell you are with someone you are closes to I think) - shows the season. And the shot of Meg is super too. Especially the drop of malt drink on her lip and the emerging smile. And a Holga in the the shot as well. What more can you ask for?

Much appreciated, Pete. (Not so sure about the "fine looking chap" bit, though! LOL.) Meg didn't realize she had the drop of malt on her lip and I didn't tell her or she'd have wiped it away,...which I didn't want.

Thanks again, Pete!

I was just being polite!!

That's good to know, Pete, because I was beginning to question your celebrated powers of observation!
