[Leica] IMG: Gulf Fritillary, Different Lens

[Jim Nichols]

Thanks, Ted.  I am very impressed with these 30-yr old Leica-R lenses.  
For my uses, they are fine, at affordable prices.

I traded in a seldom used Leica lens for a late SN Leica Elmarit-R 90mm.  The light was not as nice today as yesterday, but here is my first effort with the lens.  In the future, I will probably stop down another stop to help with the wing tips.
