SAS hotel, Kuwait. January 1997. Stereo Realist, Kodak Gold 400. ApeTronix[tm] plays with the solid granite ball supported by water jets below. With some patience and a decent grip on its slippery surface, you can spin this 8 ton clunker any way you want (in ultra slow motion, of course). The wall in the background is festooned with the usual pix of post-1991 Iraqi destruction found in most public buildings in Kuwait. Since the Realist has its stupid custom flash mount, I had to make do with the available artificial light. The colour balance sucks despite postprocessing. (12/24)
