Was just going over some old emails from you in our discussions about buying lenses (yes, more decision-making!) and clicked on a link that you said would tell me about image stablizers, and it brought me to your gallery instead! Which was nice anyway! Really like the colour tone and perspective on this one. Looks like you're having fun with your scanner too, and nice to see those great photos in Europe from way back!

Okay, back to image stablizers! #2539023
