Notes (Roving Rube): Here is some of the spectacular Art Deco detailing of the 1929 General Electric Building, as seen in the only one of the Rube's 100 pictures taken this past weekend with his new 6x telephoto lens adapter not to come out blurry.

The Rube had noticed that a large percentage of photos taken with his 3x zoom were also coming out blurry, and had rather been expecting the 6x to solve rather than exacerbate this problem.

However, today he realized that it must be that the more the zoom, the more the shakiness of his hands gets magnified. So next weekend he will be using the monopod when zooming and hoping for better results!
