Lotus and Lotii - October 2008 - There was that time I parked my 1972 Elan nose to nose with a 2009 Lotus Exige. The owner was very happy to show me around his car – but showed not a flicker of recognition of my Elan. Another member of that class of car drivers I characterize as having more dollars than sense. No sense or knowledge of their own vehicles' heritage. To be honest – I wouldn’t trade my Elan Sprint for his Exige under any circumstance.
I'm an emergency room physician since 1982. Currently I do what is called "locum tenens," working at various locations for weeks to months at a time. States I've worked include New Hampshire, Ohio, Indiana, Arizona, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Montana.
My Father got me started with adjustable cameras in the early 1960's. My gear includes basically three systems - Pentax Spotmatic (mid-late 1960's); Nikon FE2/F3HP (mid-1980's); and Leica M2/M4 with late Canon LTM optics and one Voigtlander lens. My first serious digital was a Panasonic LUMIX DMC LX2 - a startlingly versatile little instrument. I've recently picked up a Canon 5D body - on which I'll use my Asahi Super Takumar and Auto Vivitar lenses until I can afford some more contemporary optics. There are an additional fifteen or so 35mm and 120 roll cameras.
