... two real photographers, and two of those new fangled thingies (3x Nikon and 1x Polaroid)...

Way cool!
Amazing detail and light in the polaroid shot!

Tell us what that retaining wall is holding back?

You all look so cool, sort of like the "mod squad" of photographers! I like the image your 195 captured here Skorj!

I find quite funny that the one with the Polaroid is the only one trying to "blend in" by wearing camouflage clothes :)
Very discrete  ;D

For some reason, I feel like the time an entire tour bus of Japanese tourists took my picture at a local spot... They probably liked my YashicaMat :) (Yes, I'm big in Japan like the song said  :D )

The hill; rocks and landslides. A common feature in rural Japan. That, and the pesky monkeys... Urghh.

We made the same gag... How's that! I like the reasonable fast lens on the 195 too. I like the DoF you can force.

That would be right! Unlike other places, old here is still appreciated, and popular. Sugoi, as they say.

Aha! re: same gag ~ Great minds think alike! ..which saying my father was always quick to counter with "fools never differ"  ;)
re: fast lenses and DOF forcing, yes, I think that's why I like my Yashica Electros so much...
