Old Man Colour and Lost in Thought are my favourites. The old XE 1 is still 
working very well for you.
Thanks fro sharing. More please.

Subject: [Leica] Quito

As a respite from the tsunami of critter photographs I have posted, and
those yet to come, here are a few photographs from Quito. I found Quito a
very charming city, full of steep ups and downs, as it is smack bang in the
middle of the Western and Eastern Andean ranges, within spitting distance
of an active volcano (!) and around 2850 metres (9350 ft)above msl. As with
any South American metropolis, one has to be quite careful where one is
walking, and be economical with the flash and cash, but given that, it was
really nice. It has a wonderful Old City, from colonial times (Spanish)
dating from the mid 16th century, and that is where we stayed for a few
days and wandered around:
