Das Boot

Das Boot

Uploaded: August 03, 2007

Description

iso 100, 180mm (Canon 180L macro), f/20, 15 secs, timer/tripod, usm in pse5.... Went into the garage for a beer after dinner and the low sun was lighting up the garage and this boot in the corner. Didn't move the boot. I've had this pair of boots since 1970 and they still fit just fine... :-)
