hi folks! long time no tawk...


it's been a very hot summer over here, and I don't do well in hot and humid weather as you probably know by now



but it's finally starting to cool down for autumn!



water in the pipes is still in the high 20s Centigrade, which means I still can't develop the stack of b&W rolls I've been taking...



but pretty soon it'll cool down and things will be good



got a "new" mamiya 645 pro tl to play with.



I'm liking 6X4.5 format more and more: it's very similar to 6X7 in aspect ratio, the cameras are a LOT smaller than MF, the lenses are superb and the quality I get from the scans is frighteningly good.



still waiting for all the bits to arrive from KEH, but the adapter to let me use the Pentacon lenses with it has arrived!



will have results scanned soon.







field soccer season has started already, with both Sam and Sarah playing this year.



been busy giving them the basics and getting them back into shape.



Sam's team won again the Northern beaches futsal indoor soccer in their division, and this year yours truly was their coach for half the season!


I'm totally stoked my yelling at them actually worked! :#1:



Sam scored in excess of 25 goals: :clap:
he's very fast and has a monster kick which is perfect for an attacker in indoor soccer.



in the field he's better suited as a defensive sweeper or back mid-field, where he's been stopping them with tremendous regularity



this year I reckon his field soccer team has a good chance of a top position in juniors div 1



they are very strong and recently held the NSW state champions to a goalless draw in a friendly: absolutely tremendous!






I'm looking forward to winter: got stacks of photos to process and lots of soccer to coach and watch.



Bliss! :dance:




Cacthyalata, folks!

Have you ever heard of Camerin Carpenter? He is a vertuoso organist and I DA keeps screwing up the url when I try to post it. Just go to You Tube and search "Camerin Carpenter". Then click on his video entitled "Revolutionsetüde, op.10". This guy's pedalpoint is amazing!

I would certainly hope so! We've all been a bit busy of late so not much to report at the moment - there could be something (very small) happening this weekend but we do try to host a meet each and every month, whether it's massive (30+ deviants) or just a 'minimeet' where a few folks can make it...

Look forward to seeing you at many of these in the future!
