The Wee Man's A Ham!

[Brian Moore]

I was lining up my shot of this Chevy last weekend and suddenly this wee fella appears on camera. His parents tried to reel him in lest he spoil my fotie. Pure serendipity.

(Everything looks to be in the shade here but I wasn't. And the sunlight was coming in from an angle above me that made viewing details of the image in the fresnel screen practically impossible. Until I got the negatives back I really had no idea if the wee man was in focus or how well I had balanced the shot.)

Yashica 635 and Kodak Ektar 100 film.

Fantastic Fotie! You couldn't have set that up. Brilliant.

Much obliged, Rob. Thanks.

Yep, that works a treat I think. A follow-up shot with the bonnet (hood) down and a pair sneakers peaking out would have made a nice contrast!

I never thought of that, Pete. Wish I had; I'm sure the wee man would have obliged.

You mean, someone has kidnapped Hugo!

 

[Pete Askew]

I reckon that vBulletin Inc have kidnapped him in an attempt to stop Hamish from migrating the forum to another platform. We know what you've done VB. FREE HUGO NOW!
