Good morning all and happy Monday. Public holiday here today so I’m going to take it just chill for the day, might wander over to the beach and see what’s happening there but I’ll wait a while because we have a pretty solid sea fog rolling in at the moment. Smoking some Cabbies mix in a Castello #33 with a yeti full of coffee whilst I contemplate getting a commission pipe made 
It was so windy and the pipe seemed to be smoking pretty hot, so I put it down to cool off about 1/3 of the way in and moved to the garage. So … We Three Kings in the IMP - another favorite holiday blend - nice to settle in and relax. 
Did a set of walking reps on this humid, muggy, cloudy afternoon, and am close to finishing this bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. If it hadn't sprinkled a little during my last lap, I would have done one more.

Making some fast cellphone edits of a cyclocross race I shot a couple weeks back.

This pic has my vote for the November Pipe Picture of the Month (which should be a thing)!
Thanks! I live in downtown Sofia, Bulgaria. There really is some beautiful architecture in my neighborhood.
I haven’t smoked Sutliff Crumble Kake Red Virginia in a long time, so since the jar was within reach from yesterday, Crumble Kake it is…

I'm not typically a fan of bamboo on pipes, but this really works well. Beautiful pipe!
Davidoff Flake Medallion in the Big Ben. My buddy is there in the picture and I’ve got chicken on the pellet grill getting ready for dinner.
Happy Sunday everyone!

Enjoyed eight slices of cinnamon raisin French toast with a sliced peach on the side. Going back to dieting as of now, but yesterday and today was worth the fun of eating! I'm not far from finishing this bowl of year 2021 HU Directors Cut in a smooth medium brown slight bend 1950s Comoy’s London Pride 337C prince with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Larry's Twilight #10, neat, is my drink. Getting ready for my weekly Sunday pipe zoom.
I hope you like it when you try it… it’s kind of plain and I haven’t aged it yet but I like it for its simplicity and easy burning characteristics. Enjoy.
Just put up the new fake Christmas tree to make sure the lights work - a lot of shaping in store. Back to relaxing with a 2022 Peterson Christmas pipe in No. 68 and some Wilke Santa’s Blend. 
All my respect for you using still a tri-x-pan in analogue manner. But why did you choose the vignette thing, dropped down - I suppose- in a later stage of digital processing of the negative slide.
As far as I remember this certain pentax lens hadn’t a built in (faulty) effect like that and was as clear as other lenses of the days of 24x36 mm Photography?
