I have not spoken out simply because I don't know how! So please regard this first inept attempt at joining your list with quiet forbearance. I am new to computers....but not to Leicas. I have shot with M's and screwmounts since the early seventies. Currently using an M6 with 15 Heliar, 24/ 2.8 asph., 35/ 2 Summicron, 50/ 2 Summicron, 90/ 2.8 Elmarit, and 135/ 4 Elmar. I have found the conversation here lively and informative....enough in fact to cause me to attempt to create a home page in order to add my photographic efforts to the proverbial pot. Apparently this is not as easy as I had surmised....but I have managed to get at least one image up! The address is as follows: http://hometown.aol.com/l82859/myhomepage/index.html The image of the child looking out a window shown there was shot with a 35/ 2 Summicron on the M6. I was very pleased by the ability of the lens to cope with such an extreme lighting situation! The picture was shot at f2, 1/125, on Fuji Provia 100F. Please go there, check it out, and post if indeed you could actually link to the image.I love that lens! I just got the 24/ 2.8 today.....I will try to post some shots with it soon. HOORAY for the 15mm Heliar!! As soon as I can figure out how to get more than one picture on my page, I will put up some different stuff.....in the mean time if any one has any suggestions on how to best link to images so others can see them, fill me in!
