Tom,

Great photos on black velvet. It really adds contrast and enhances the detail.
TTB will really appreciate that Yellow Micarta.

Good job!

Best,
Warren

Tom, doesn't your wife ever get tired of you taking pictures while she is wearing that slinky black velvet cocktail dress?

For anyone needing a digital camera, there is an outstanfing deal at Adorma. A factory refurbished Nikon D40x for $275. This is for the body only but what a buy! I have purchased many times from Adorama and have also purchased refurbished Nikon lens. I have never had a problem with either.

That is a great deal Gary. The D40 is a compact DSLR. I might consider it as a great travel alternative to my larger D90 and my lenses will still work with it too I believe.

Best,
Warren

True for most lens, but not all. AF and AF-D lens will not autofocus on the D40 series. Adorama used to have some killer deals on refurbished D50 bodies. At the time, that was my main camera. I was going to buy a second body but the D90 came out and I had to have it.

Here is a chart from www.kenrockwell.com that I refer to for lens compatibility.

Established in 1987 on the corner of Spring and Sullivan in the heart of Soho, Mezzogiorno has earned a reputation as one of New York City's most alluring and genuine restaurants.

Mezzogiorno(Noon) was voted as "Best Pizza in NYC" for several years.
Is actually run by Florentine' Anzuini Family and it's specialyzed in Regional(Tuscany) Italian Cousine.
Just its FOCACCIA(white pizza with rosmarin and origano) worth a visit. JohnJohn Kennedy was crazy about that pizza but that was....other time.
Mezzogiorno Restaurant was part of my life as Newyorker ....
Best
Guido

It just figures it would take some out-of-towner's to point out the best restaurants in NY. If Tony weren't in Canada this week skiing, he'd add a thing or two.
There's a Pizza restaurant in Brooklyn called Grimaldi's under the Brooklyn Bridge that makes Pizza in a coal fired brick oven. They never let the oven go out. They only sell whole pies, no slices and sometimes the line is down the street. They claim to have the best in Brooklyn.
And they there's Dominicks in the Bronx. No menus, tell them what you want to eat, family style. The safest block in the Bronx. The Cadillac's are lined up and down the street if you know what I mean. We have some good ones here just like across the pond.
Bon Appetit!

Best,
Warren
