randy dannheim December 22, 2006

Robert you did it again. Unbeleavable sky my friend. Was this with your Spotomatic or the Kodak? I just purchased a old Chinon 35 that takes screw in lens. Has a Chinon 35mm F = 1.7 and a Chinon 200mm F=3.5 both in great condition. I is supposed to be very simular to the Spotomatic. I also have about 20-30 other 35's, all working. I don't have anything Med. Format, but I find one someday. You have made so many great captures with your Spotomatic, I was inspired to grab the Chinon. I would like to run a few rolls through it soon. Any recomendations on where to get some fresh slide film? #3731300

Jeffrey M. Smith May 01, 2012

OUT-BLOODY-STANDING shot! The reason (I believe [at least what I remember from military history at the academy]) It is/was called "soldiers grave" due to all the fallen (some buried, some left where they lie) Buffalo Soldiers that played a HUGE part in "taming" the west and protecting settlers from Indians
