For Alec

September 4th, 2007 § 4

A linkback to his post on Careers in Photography. I have had this book “Shooting your way to a $-Million” by Richard Sharabura since I was in High School. It dates from 1981 but the illustrations feel straight out of 1975. When I was assisting in the 90’s in Canada I felt like some of the people I assisting played it straight out of this book. Now 11 years in, I can see now the error of my ways…

    Robert, a post I tried to make in Paris, je t’aime… seems to have botched the page code with my attempt to ref a link?! Apologies. Anyway, I enjoy the blog.

    (And I meant to say the styling of the Metzner should looks to have cribbed seriously from “Shooting your way to a $-Million”.)

    If you are wondering about the M8 I would say jump in the water is fine.
    Roundabout, I went to your site and say all the Thai coverage, and I believe when I was there with Sheila we went to see the Ladyboy show, in a big arena? Hits of the 70’s and 80’s Broadway style? Very funny, and all the performers follow you out into the parking lot. Imagine Wayne Newton in LV doing that…

    That was in Phuket. Ladyboys everywhere! But the shows are just for — show. Thais are incredibly tolerant so, katoeys, trannies, ladyboys are as likely to be at the bank teller window or serving noodles on the street.

What's this?
