  Whew!  It was a horror story
but after some of your other
stories I was sure she was going
to drop your slides in the fire
or something. Glad they survived.

  I think it's the emotional
attachment thing that is sometimes
discussed on P3D. (Blurry baby
photo is wonderful because it's
my granddaughter...)

  Our (flat) photo album is
full of nicely exposed and sharp
photos of (mostly) our kids
activities (since we week out
the bad shots). But a few months
ago I snapped some nice macro
shots with my new-to-me ebay
Pentax 100mm macro lens and put
them in the album. Good
sharp shots of flowers, bees
etc. It's amazing how fast my
relatives can flip over those
two pages! Sheesh.
