Re: Auzzie.rail catching up.

To Erk

mmm...now I can't remember what she looks like. Fairly short, brown
hair....If you want to check her out, the Rabbit Photo Place on a
Sunday near midday (same time where I was)


To the rest.

mmm...'filling in times between trains' I'm planning to probably get
one of my rolls of film developed at a nearby shopping centre while I
have have a simple drink and pasterrie at a nearby Cafe with Brisbane
Waters in my view while I wait for my service back to the City.
Sounds good.
For the film discussion I have taken down notes from all.
I should understand the use of Fuji 100 and 200 now (Even thought it
still dosen't make sense hehehe).
I'll give the Fuji 200 a "Trial and Error" and see, but I'm still using
Kodak Max (Very odd for a rail photographer) since I'm seeing if I can
achieve those sunset and sun-reflecting shots at Penrith!

I should be holding back these Q's but......
Again to locals at Penrith, where would you usually get your film
developed and how much? (Don't forget Quality)

P.S. Due to Copyright problems in the past with some pictures of
unauthorized use (Trains that is), I will have to apply "tags" to my
images with

"Copyright Maikha

and a logo of "The Intercity Platform

P.P.S. I've sharpened the images abit, and also Watermarking them. In
the past I was afraid to Electronically Manipulate them in case I stuff
it up.....hate to admit.
