In Vietnam, I saw people 'fixing' their electrical connections by poking a broom at the tangle of wires.

Thanks, Htmb. And yeah -- really! What I like about that picture is the way it looks classically & artificially posed, although the guys truly were just doing their jobs.

Bixa - your photos give a whole new meaning to 'flipping burgers'!

Patricklondon, What an interesting old fellow! He seems to have everything he needs hanging off his old organ....never mind the little ornaments to keep it homely! I notice two torches, spanners, screwdrivers,
maybe some twine wound around a glew bottle and I think a measuring spoon.

Thanks, Tod. I need to go to that section of the meat market one day & do a report. Those pics were shot zoomed in from the street.

Happily at work ~~

Oh, bixa, your photos are wonderful. I love the last one! Is your new camera everything you had hoped?

Thank you so much, Htmb! Well, someone behind the camera is still managing to take blurry pictures, put maybe I'll get it in time. It does take better pictures than the old one (aka, The Velveteen Rabbit).

The bubble pics are from the VR, the ones below that from the new one. I have a backlog of photos for reports from the old one I need to get posted.

Kerouac, Only in Camden Town would that 'hippie' with a Mahican hair tuft and artwork arms, not look out of place !! The complete opposite is the nerdy guy with the longish hair (tucking it behind his ear) and rimmed glasses, and Bermuda shorts 8-)
