[Leica] Cape Cod in Winter

[bruce at ralgo.nl (bruce)]

I enjoy 1................ and from the 15mm, 5 and 6. They both lend  
the super-wide to the carefully controlled angles.

I've got one now too (15mm) ............... just need the scanner to  
be able to show. Epsom comes with news ............. at the PMA.

Thanks for including us in your fun, Dick.
