There was almost that many in the water to the left of that.  It was quite impressive to see, people get excited if they see just one turtle when they go to Hawaii.

In recognition of the D-Day anniversary, one from the archive: as I've previously written, my dad spent the war in the UK, a photo tech attached to a B-17 reconnaissance squadron at RAF Alconbury. In the last phase of invasion preparations, as troops were being massed for deployment, the Allies knew there were German spies in London and other major cities, and that an overt shortage of GIs in cafes and theaters would tip off the pending invasion. My dad and thousands of other non-combat personnel were issued a variety of uniforms with differing ranks and given schedules of places to be at different times of the days and nights preceding the invasion, to make it look like business as usual.

I'm not sure when this photo was taken in 1944, but it reminds me of the story my dad told. Scan from a 116-format negative that's a smidge taller than my scanner supports, hence the panorama-ish aspect.

Need to revisit. Immediately wished I had brought color film and a wide angle lens to photograph the remains of this old dam.

Interesting film. Contrasty, with lots of "toe", very fine grain. I used a yellow-green filter on many shots (it pretty much lives on the front of the old Miranda I shot this roll on) which seems to have crushed the shadows even more.
