Or given where we live by the sea! ;-) One might consider a walk along doing a series of photos on waves breaking as the gentle sea breezes keeps one cool and relaxed. Take one LEICA M and one lens, stay cool & relaxed look for a few neat sand images and water creating new images with each wave swoosh! :-) There you go now and have a nice afternoon! :-) cheers, ted -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Henning Wulff Sent: July-04-15 11:44 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] IMG: "It's too darn hot" A bigger problem than the heat, directly, is that this year there has been no rain here southwestern BC. Month after month this year we?ve had record high temperatures with record amounts of sunshine, record low precipitation and record number of wildfires. Well, not everything has been a record, but close, and this every month since Christmas. We locals and and visitors might complain about the (usual) rain, but we depend upon rain. Drought like California?s is obviously something completely different, but still. Also, there?s all this continual high contrast. The lighting is awful. C?mon!
