Memorial Day

At the National Cemetery, SF.

The military always puts on a great show on Memorial Day at San Francisco’s National Cemetery, and today was no exception. This being the 50th anniversary of the Viet Nam war the crowds were heavy, complete with TV crews. Ugh!

Keeping Hishonner safe is not cheap. Alcatraz behind.

All snapped on two Panny GX7s, mounting that estimable pair the 14-45mm and 45-200mm Panny compact MFT zooms. These optics may be almost a decade old yet continue to provide a broad and versatile focal length range while weighing (and costing!) little.
