  • G'Day Gypsy...This album caught my eye as I also have (2) Canon T-70's...my son found a reconditioned body on E Bay last fall for me & surprised me with a gift..My first one is now 21 yrs old & I still use both of them as backup (keep B/W in one, color slide film in the other)..My main camera now is Minolta Maxxum 300sl but someday Lord willing I'll get the Digital SLR...But my T-70's will always be around as I just can't part with either one..Now having said all that I want to comment on this awesome album...Your "Fond" farewell to your Canon T-70" is a classic statement in your entry below..Gone but not forgotten..Thanks for sharing your thoughts & memories as I read the other commets about their T-70's...Looking forward to viewing all of your albums in the near future as you've got such an "eye" for beauty which is a gift from God...Have a Great Day & god's Blessings from Texas...Ken

  • G'day Gypsy. Loved the photos from WA. It's funny that you have gone digital - because after a few years of digital I've dusted off my trusty T70 as my preferred camera. I find film still has that indefinable something that digital lacks - a sense of depth, of substance where digital pictures are too sharp and shiny and, well, electronic - real life is not like that. My T70 will be 20 years old next year and still thinks it is brand new; the LCD sreen - which was only meant to last 5 years - is still as clear as it was the day I bought it duty free in 1986. A truly great camera. My previous camera was a Pentax Spotmatic that my rich auntie gave me in 1964. My brother still uses it! Cheers, Thommo

  • Hi Gypsy! What a terrific album. And, no, I don't think the heat spoiled your pics at all. I was absolutely enthralled and went through the slide show twice. I love the pastel feeling in "Early Summer"...it is soft and inviting. "Crystal Rose" is a gem, just lovely. And the "Knotted and Grnarled" tree is fantastic. Neat tree. Thanks for visiting and your kind remarks in my "Sky Moods" album. Enjoy your day. Louise

  • Hi Gypsy, Totally proud to be the first to sign your guestbook, and no apologies needed for the quality of these photos as they were all just stunning, and as usual a completely beautiful album with a difference. I love the reflections especially the almost mirror trees in 'Reflecting Nature & Sapphire Waters!!..Love those trees!! Have no doubt the old Canon did herself awesome justice with the total content of this album. I was stunned by 'The Guardian' as the first thing I saw was a creature tree like in "Lord of The Rings"!! AWESOME shot, and AWESOME tree!!Aren't trees such a treasure of life. I could sit here and write about the beauty in everyone of these photos but it would take pages, so have no doubt that I shall be back many times to 'feel' these captures of a moment in time. The flowers at the end are as usual just 'stunning'!!..I do have quite a few messages to reply to, you included, but at moment am full-on into studying 'airbrushing', which is very exciting. Hopefully soon shall get a new camera and put up some new pics, but until then these great Aussie pics are a 'joy to the Spirit'..Tks for sharing Gypsy, and have a great day. ..........Em

  • Gidday All my lovely visitors.... I knw many of these pics are not 'up-to-scratch'.... but they are the best of the last 4 slide films from my 2 dear old Canon T-70's.. Once I got the Nikon... Iforgot about the 4 films...consequently they spent 6 months rolling around in a smallplackie bag in my glovebox...Perhaps the heat 'spoiled' the films a bit... anyway...I think My 'Old Friends' deserved a tribute. I hope you can overlook the poor quality of many of the pics...just this once...*_*.... Cheers Mates!!!!... Gypsy...((((*_*))))
