Brooke at the Beach

I love the quiet peace at the beach…. its not only relaxing but recharging.  This was from a few weeks ago when we took off a little early, got the kids and headed to Beverly Shores in Indiana for some evening at the beach then some garlic knots in Valpo at Greeks.  I’ve also been toting my “toy camera”, as Elise calls it, my trusty Leica M6.  She’s been with me for over 23 years, the camera that is – I’ve known Elise for only about 20 years…..  and shes still going strong, although she is due for her second overhaul…. I should clarify again that I am speaking about the camer and not Elise…..   Soo… Anyway….  Elise is always asking me to take images in digital for her scrap booking, and I do oblige her, I just think there is something really special about the way an image is rendered on film.  Or maybe its the way the image is made, no peaky till the cookings done.  Im not completely analogue, I have incoporated a few digital amenities to the process.
