Re: Pinhole gallery on egroups

Dwight,

I forwarded that old message from Gregg about the site
he set up for us. No offense, just wanted you to know
of its existance. I started to look at your images
and have only looked at a couple yet. Do you live in
Ireland? The first one, Tralee, wasn't saturated in
green; was there a drought on like the one we've been
having here in the SE US or is it just how you treated
the film?
