[Leica] Highlands PAW 41

[John McMaster]

Not really in the Highlands, no clouds!  Spent a week in Malta (Karen is half Maltese and spent the first part of her life there), so as in a city my PAW is back its old style ;-)

Here is a panorama of the Three Cities from the Upper Barrakka Gardens

We stayed in Birgu and knew that the Festival of Light was to be held when we were there, the street lights are turned off and just candle light illuminates (or not) the streets.  For the first time in years I did not take any M kit with me, 'just' S(007) and four lenses (24, 45,70 and 120, equivalent to 19, 35, 56 and 96) - still weighs ~9kg so that is the downside.  Lenses are about two stops slower than my M lenses (although still faster than zoom lenses), however it is far better at high ISO than my M(240) and some of these shots are at 12,800.
