Limited Edition Nikon F2A Anniversary Model

Chris and Carol Leave a comment
It looks like it did when it left Nikon USA back in 1978.
The 25th Anniversary badge has never been attached. This is how I received it from Nikon USA.
Numbered baseplate 25-0749.
It has gorgeous chrome surfaces with no marks anywhere.
Matching serial numbers.
Matching serial number on the DP-11 finder.
Perfect. Never had even one roll of film installed.

‘Ghost’ Signs

I enjoy photographing ghost signs, and my adopted hometown has plenty to see. Here are a couple of images taken about thirteen years apart. It appears to be fading faster now in the intense Florida sunlight.

Does your town have ghost signs? I’ll share a few more soon. This building is along Centre Street in the Fernandina Beach (Florida) Historic District. Thanks for stopping by, Chris

A few images from a recent photo walk in the downtown historic district. Canon EOS R and Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM lens.

Lots of small shops along Centre Street.
A local artist from the high school added some artistry to the downtown.
Big bad Chevy!
Fantastic Fudge’s entry with its cast-iron facade.
The 1876 Building.
The World Famous Palace Saloon. It’s Florida’s oldest continuing operating bar.
The unbearable heat of summer has passed, so it’s a great time to visit Fernandina Beach on beautiful Amelia Island.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a fantastic Sunday, Chris
