Cigars??? Where?

. . . of your canny decision to focus on the patches in some of the photos instead of the watches . . . I, for one, felt no small measure of pride in seeing them.  I clearly remember that summer night in '69 when Apollo XI  was returning . . . the American community in Iran, where my Dad was working, threw a party and we all took turns with binoculars and telescopes searching the night sky for our compatriots.  The resident British, Canadians, Australians, South Africans, Dutch, and a few locals were at the party, and I don't think I've ever felt the comradeship of the international community as warmly as on that occasion.  Cordially, Art

While the watches are nice, the patches are really gorgeous!

Hi

First off thanks for the post.  The lapel pins are very nice.   Did you get a chance to handle any of the  50th Anv. pieces?

But I chose not to. Normally with camera in hand, I leave the pieces where they are if they are mounted

Hi

i know exactly what you mean.  When I have "camera in hand"  I do not  experience the event the same way.  That has happened to me at the Omega Museum back in 1997 ( took over 200 photos  and 3 hours of video).   The same thing happened at  the Omegamania cocktail party in NYC.  It is hard for me to enjoy the event when I am constantly thinking of the shots.  

Thanks again for posting..

Sometimes we can't see the forest for the trees. It's like going for a holiday but we look at the sights only thru the videocam :P

Thanks KT for your hard work.

Your experience reminded me of my feelings when taking photos for WFED forum....eating but not tasting.

Like ppl who photograph food until it gets cold...
