The police car and Obama posters are good seeing especially. One minor quibble, that guy is unloading Coors lite, not beer. Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/e http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/ -----Original Message----- Subject: [Leica] IMG: PAW 19 (ric) Things change. In my previous (SLR) life, I probably shot fewer than 100 SLR photos with a 35mm lens. That's over 30-year period. Realistically, the only time I used a 35 was when I pocketed my Olympus XA. In my rangefinder incarnation, the 35 has become my walk-around lens. All of this Week 19's shots were with my CV Nokton 35/1.2. It's a little heavy, but I like the occasional narrow depth of field. (Time to buy a neutral density filter for it.) Must trot out the Ultron a little more often to reduce muscle strain;^) Is shallow depth of field going to become a Photoshop skill with 28 becoming the new 35 on the M8??
