B.D.
Whatever the influence, this is a fine series and you should feel
justifiably pleased and motivated to tackle a new project.
Most enjoyable, thanks

Cheers
Hoppy

Thanks, Don - To be perfectly honest, it's not the Olympus, it's the
circumstances, intent, and the SLR. I'm shooting tighter for two reasons;
longer use of the M, with its frame lines, during my latest stint of M use
than at any time in the past - using a rangefinder made me think much more
about the frame and filling it, and I find that's carrying over to the SLR,
which for some reason it never did in the past. Reason two is that the
subway is a tight, cramped place, and one is either right on top of
subjects, or...one is using a somewhat longer lens - in  my case up to about
105, to reach subjects whom my footzoom can't get me to.
