[Leica] Hong Kong's Bird Market on New Year's Day

[H&ECummer]

Hi Luggers,
A group of nine of us descended on the Flower Market and the Bird Market on New Year’s Day.
I thought the bird market would be quiet but it was a holiday, of course, and busier than I had
ever experienced it.

First, some of the “boys” - Greg, Clarence, Joe and Ray - plenty of Leicas in evidence:

I had my M to Fuji adapter with me and Greg lent me his 90mm Summicron APO as I ha forgotten my 90 Elmarit at home. My accurate focus
hit rate was very high - better than on my Leicas - the reason why I sold my 90 APO years ago
(before prices rose astronomically):

A bird lover walking his cockatoo - the 90 APO wide open - great bokeh!

In a dark corner an old fellow was reading the newspaper with a magnifying glass - the 90 APO again -
cropped to about half the frame:

A green parrot lover - the 90 cron APO, of course:

And finally a Red Parrot once more with the 90 cron APO cropped to about half the frame.
I photoshopped out the chain that held him down:
