I reached out to the photographer to see about buying some prints but I didn't get a response. He's in Argentina. Does anyone speak Spanish, and can you help me find out costs? I'd be interested in purchasing a high-res original that I could just print out in the US.

That 'knock down' is the reason that I really hate IOR boats.

Giu,

Perhaps you would be so kind as to grace we humble beginners (who stand in awe of your great and esteemed knowledge of all things naughty-cal) with... the meaning of "Knockroach"??
