The Leica and Canon shots are all taken with wide-angle zooms.  There 
is hardly *any* bokeh to talk of in those shots.  While I tend to agree 
with your assessment of the three brands, there is little to no 
photographic evidence in favour of supporting that thesis in the three 
folders you present.

In contrast, the Nikon shots are taken with normal or tele zooms at a 
tele-setting.  A worthwhile comparison would have used lenses which are 
as *similar* to each other as possible -- as well as subject matter 
which is as similar to each other as possible.

That said, I enjoyed looking at your photographs: a nice collection.  
If your intent was simply to announce them to us, then a simple message 
to that effect would have sufficed.
