Thank you, Janine. I like this old camera because it's images have a special warm ambience reminiscent of Kodak portrait films. It just has a look I can't get with the newer cams. It is a slightly tempermental camera, but I'm keeping it for now because it is sort of an irreplaceable tool. This image was done with a fairly cheap Tamron zoom, which I didn't like too much until I took it out and used it all day with some serious intent. I think the results were much better than I'd expected. (I just can't afford good Nikon lenses on an amateur budget). I have a Sigma zoom that probably rivals some of the better Nikons within it's scope of limitations. Sorry for rambling on...

Thanks again for taking the time to view and comment.
