Three of the 12 participants shot M's: Tina, Roy Harrington and Paul Roark. Tina even let me use her M to take a few snaps of her and Tom; I almost bolted with it, but Tom has me out-legged. :-) Glad you enjoyed. I thought the detail and sharpness was wonderful; the 100% crop of the group of participants really shows that well. That shot was taken with the 80mm (normal) lens. Thanks for looking Geoff, Bob PS - Tina and Tom went on to Yosemite after the workshop. Of course storms and clouds started rolling in on Monday; I hope she enjoyed that rare photo op.

I heard a rumour that M's were very well represented at this camp this time too.
