Salt Flats - Utah

Posted By Linton Rohr

Nice shots, Tyler.
We were driving through there about 12-15 years ago,
and thought it would be cool to hit the Bonneville salt flats.
It's weird. Without telephone poles or white lines flying by,
it's hard to tell you're doing 140mph. Wouldn't do it again, though.
We were cleaning salt out from under the car for months afterward! wink

Nagler 22 versus Nagler 20

Posted By Linton Rohr

Hi Sebrin.
The 20mm T5 was the first Nagler I ever bought
and I've always been very happy with it.
The 22mm T4 is one of the few Naglers I've never owned, so I can't help you there.
The view through Floyd's always looks good though.
I don't think you can go wrong really.
It's just a matter of what your more comfortable with.
The T5's are probably my favorite Naglers though.
Enjoy it, whichever route you take! grin

That's awesome, Jim!
Brings back memories. smile
We took an autumn trip through New England about 10 years ago.
Makes me want to do it again someday.

Flowers from S.Florida...

Posted By Linton Rohr

Wow! Thanks Ivan. Those are really nice.
Reminds me of the time we went to a butterfly sanctuary
in Thailand. They had a "lost in translation" sign that said...

DONT LET BUTTERFLY
ONLY IN MEMORY
OR IN ALABUM

We got the idea. ;^)
