Fishermen probably are liars, but if we make the good stuff better than it really was, we also make the bad stuff worse, and we believe in the long run, that balances out to be something very much like the truth.

You know how other fishermen sometimes casually drift over in your direction when they see you are catching fish? They do that when you are catching carp, too, but when they see what you are into they just drift away again. I wish I could make them do that with trout.

This is Mrs. Arcus ca 1972 using my first "good" camera, a Pentax Spotmatic II. (I still have it.).

This is professional scan of a slide, perhaps from Extachrome. 50 mm kit lens. No idea of the camera settings.

Today is our 55th wedding anniversary.

I've noticed at a certain age things begin to float to the surface. If you beat yourself up when you were younger, those old wounds start to throb at odd times, and you may now and then, find yourself thinking and speaking in can only be your ancestral voice, because it sure as hell isn't you, but it still had to come from somewhere.
