This was captured by Jens, with the ION some weeks before I had the Kodak - the trouble with the ION is that the procedure of getting the pix out of the camera is too non-standard for me to do it, so it took some time before I could use them. But here was the thistle patch in one of the pix containing the orange-vested street-cleaning woman. We kept coming across her on our weed tour, and although not a same-day event it shows how they really do their best to keep this place clean. At the time I didn't want to waste these pictures just because they were a couple of weeks old (or because they're not the same quality as the new camera).
