2. Color for me as well. The gold adds such "richness".

12. thanks. My dad left them to me. The big Elgin is a Railroad Watch from the
L&N. My uncle worked for them most of his life.

Next, I will open the big one.

22. All of them are really wonderful!
I love them all, including the first one, in color. Definitely color. The gold really enhances and helps define your blacks in the texture of the items. :hi:

24. Thanks I did a black and white version for my desktop image.
I don't like bright, colorful backgrounds.

25. That's cool.
I have this as my background right now.

At first I didn't think it was real, but a lot of his photos have that other world quality.

APOD is my home page so I change my background frequently as new stunning images are posted.

21. Aw, hell, now I want one of those.
Though without an optical viewfinder, I doubt I could use it well. Still want one, though.

23. You can add one if you don't mind being relegated to using the built in flash.
The site dpreview was slow, because of all the traffic. Olympus played the leak game well. Steve Jobs would be pleased.

28. I want to see it and hold it first. I got to play with a Panasonic GF1, and
I find that I'd have to relearn my SLR muscle memory.
