Camera Talk

Most of you know I am a sucker for 360 degrees of image. I like to take those Wide angle converters from old VHS cameras and put them on any lens I can make it fit on. This time I used electrical tape to attach it to the Kit lens from a Minolta Maxxum 500si and loaded the camera with PolypanF. Yes I had to PS out my feet from a few shots.

That's a really clever idea and I think that it worked great in each of the photos-- I like them all; the one of the stairway makes me feel like I'm right there.

Agree with Bill - the stairway shot is immersive.

Cool thanks. if you look lower left in that shot you can see my jacket.

The Roxy entrance is spaceship like.

Someone else told me that. Ron Bishop may remember The Roxy. When he was stationed here in the 60s it was a movie theater not a live stage theater. All the old Projection equipment is still in it but the Fire Marshal said it was a time bomb ready to go.

Your close Larry, but it was 1954/5 when I was there. Never did go to a movie at the theater, but there was a very fine bar just next door.

Well there is an empty lot next to it now.

Maybe they can get somebody to donate a digital projector.

Ya right.
