Cafe Celebs

Left over from yesterday...

I didn't take any more shots after that, as the waitress got really annoyed with me. I asked her for a saucer of milk for my camera...she looked totally confused, then just decided I was a trouble maker who needed to be watched at all times.

And here are the celebs from the graveyard. How many do you recognise. I had heard of half of them, but Susan knows them all - but her PhD was about the Enlightenment in 19th century Edinburgh...

Er, that'll be two for me!

Love the cafe shot and the reflections in the table. As for the waitress, she wasn't so easily fooled. Milk indeed. She could obviously tell it was a digital camera and so couldn't take emulsions!!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

LOL!

Beautiful first shot Rob,
Love the tones and composition! Cracker!!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Dan.

Two for me as well. Hume and Blackwood. Sadie probably got more.

There was a Crolla's Ice Cream in Rutherglen when I was a kid. I wonder if it's the same Crolla with the pissy waitress? (Is that her on the right side of the image, Rob?)

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes. Poor thing.

When I was out at the weekend taking some shots of my Son (Adam) in a private car park, we were just packing up to leave and got jumped on by a security guard ......... He asked what we were doing ???? ......... Adam looked at him and said "Fishing" ....... It would seem, security guards have no sense of humour

Ha. But I wasn't joking. My X100 loves milk, and gets a banana muffin if she gets a particularly good shot.

Blimey, given what we've seen posted here over the last few weeks it must be costing you a fortune. I'd go back to film if I was you!!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Ha! You are just trying to get another Hugo High Five! Well, it's not working...

[Chris Dodkin]

I see your plan Rob - you're going to fatten-up the X100 into an X-Pro1 - genius!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

well, it's the only way I'll manage to get one!

 

[Glen Roberts]

well, it's the only way I'll manage to get one!

The shots you're getting with the X100 I don't think you need any other camera, some have been truly outstanding!!!

Thanks, Glen
