This lady was put out on the street by ''banks'' that are running the U.S...i had given her my card and she actually
got a hold of me. She was there at the federal building protesting all the illegal stuff going on in the U.S.

Well certainly not as brilliant as the pics in this thread but I do take random shots of people in the street. Sometimes from a distance, sometimes close up but, I am usually in a truck or car just taking pics as I travel along (in the passenger seat of course)

One from about a month ago...

I was not going to post these, but then they are photographs. I decided to pull Daniel out of school and go for a hike in the angeles national Forrest since we had not been on a good hike in while. I grabbed by ME SUPER and took off...I wish I had taken my digital with Long lens, but who knew...While Hiking a creek we came across some voodoo dolls hanging on the trees and as we looked up ahead, we found a group of people practicing true Santeria...They where doing animal sacrifice and putting the blood on these peoples head to ''cleanse'' them...It was creepy to me and horrible. All I could do is pray for these people. Anyway here are some images. Wrong lens and these are heavily cropped as they are quick scans. I will not post the slaughtering of the animals though. So ugly...They ended up scaring us away as they did not like their pictures taken....but I kept shooting.
Here we have the black witch and the white witch. Notice the snake..




Here is a little tighter look at the witch

The ritual begins




One of the voodoo dolls (or what ever it is)on the trees. This form of hard core Santaria is normally not seen.. Here we have two religions inter twined.


Here we are walking towards them.

(6'6" to 21')
at f 8 ............... 2.2 m - 5.6m
(7'4" - 16')
and at f 5.6 .............. .2.4m - 4.6m
( 8' - 13' 6")

A "Goldilocks" : "Just Right !" regards, Ken

Ken, That is very cool. Do you have any more info on your new set up?

[kencaleno]

Not really it's all very simple-the camera isn't a rangefinder,just a scale distance on the lens-and a non-coupled selenium exposure meter-just very small,full-frame 35mm,and hardly noticeable. Ken
