Freezing out with biting wind but able to try some macro shots on the kitchen 
table.  Brian sent me the T10 and had the xpol filters from Bill Barber.  
Probably not the best idea to try a new technique with film, but the OM-2 was 
loaded and ready to go to work.  I bought some Prairie smoke seeds, but they 
stripped all the wispy bits off.  Planned to use a handheld humidifier to load 
them up with droplets but may have to grow them first.  Unpleasant surprise 
when I opened the seed package.  Resorted to going out back and cut some grass 
with kitchen shears and loaded some drops with a syringe. Used my phone as a 
convenient mirror.   The images looked interesting in the VF.  The autobellows 
is beautifully engineered.  I forgot about the stop down lever in front.  Time 
will tell if efforts were a flop or not.  May try outside next "dew season."
