You're too hard on yourself, Bently
Thanks Lefty,  You're too kind.  I'm just embarrassed that those are as good as I got.  

For a while I was trying to use a (very nice) Pentax Camera, with real film.  
After I got the pictures developed I couldn't figure which settings I used for the good ones or the bad ones.
I never did figure it out.
And then after waiting so long to get the film back, it would be too late to go back and re-take them.  

Long story short,  I don't think it would matter what camera I use,  it's not the camera.  lol
I needed to know Moke......

Figuring out how to do something you have never done is what makes a good challenge.
