[Leica] Sandycove on Bloomsday evening & pub

[Herbert Kanner]

Very fine set of pictures. It’s the quality of shots like those those seen on the LUG in a previous year that persuaded me to buy an X100S as a backup to my Leica, especially since 35mm is my favorite focal length.

I was impressed with the absence of noise on the last shot at high ISO. Also, I wondered about the next to the last one. It looks like a B&W print from film that was sepia toned. Was the environment that color, or did you do that in Lightroom or Photoshop? It was very effective.’
