I've just had another look at this photo and all of a sudden I can see more than I did when I first looked at it.View attachment 35819
If not a first - a second for me in pic of the day. Shot on a camera phone. My new one - it has two Leica branded lenses in it - one for black and white and one for colour - ah yes - that will be why it was eye wateringly expensive. If using colour the images from the two sensors are meshed together by the software. I must say I'm astonished how good the quality of the image is - this isn't - but it will shoot RAW files - f**k me. It won't replace my 'normal' cameras but for stuff on the fly - like this image - I look forward to using it more. A picture is a picture - no matter how it was originated. Yours - I.

Last night - a leaving do for one of the Daily Record staff photographers. Somebody I have worked with for twenty years. On occasion I have pulled his balls out of a sling and he me.Most of the people in this picture are the cream of news photographers in west central Scotland. Some picture editors and writers to boot. It's a dying trade. Children with -IPhones - will replace us. People don't care anymore. If you're interested I'm in this picture. A dinosaur. Yours- I.

Pat - from left to right - hat-wise - staff photographer at the Record, next - ex staff snapper at the Herald and Times, now freelance - finally - I have no idea. Looks like a writer to me - too smartly dressed to be a monkey. We are not famed - as a group for our sartorial elegance. Yours - I.
