[Leica] IMGs: Farmers' Market at People's Park

[Nathan Wajsman]

Nice walk. “Farmers market” seems a bit of a misnomer, though. It looks way more upscale than a real farmers’ market.

Cheers,
Nathan

The lens cap was needed due to frequent light showers, and proved very hard to take off in a hurry. Turned out later that it was one that seems to work better on my 35mm Summaron. I probably got them mixed up while they have been resting :-)

With the crowds scurrying around, many photo opportunities were wasted as out of focus personages drifted between the camera and intended subject. I guess I'm a 35mm kind of guy and like to see the whites of their eyes. As a result, I had to dump a fair few shots.
