Of course you are quite correct Garry. All taken with the 1n, my personal
spot meter (I carry it everywhere - it never leaves my hand) and K64.

And no slide scanner. Hence my earlier question about scanners and
Kodachrome.

It does look quite strange - a submarine by the side of the road in rural
inland Australia. The kids love it. Climbing all over it. A pity it is only
the outer shell. The full interior is very interesting. A friend married a
Lieutenant (pronounced Leftenant for our US friends) who was on the subs and
we got a look through one. Fantastic.
Another mate was on them when they would follow Russian ships and take
photos. I asked him if they ever went into another country's waters, and his
reply was "That 3 mile limit is awful hard to see under water".

Foxy - and don't call me surly!

Very interesting articles. I did notice that most of it is by private
donation. But surly Foxy, couldn't YOU have done better on the photos? Some
creative OLY wide angles and close-ups would be more interesting than those
with the articles~ at least it would've enhanced my interest.

An speaking of donations, since your thongless, do we have to take up a
collection from the list membership?  }:^)>  }:^))>

I think we are all taking our periodic break from all things OM. I'm more
than confident that , in a few days, we'll be back "on topic". We always do
return to the OM fold.
