[Leica] IMG: Old Lens Revisited - Day Two

[Jim Nichols]

The rains moved over to Tina's area, and I was able to get outside, 
though it was still breezy, forcing me to shoot in the brief lulls when 
the branches were still.  As Ken pointed out, the lens does not produce 
the contrast of a modern day lens, but it has been sitting in a leather 
case for over 40 years, so that can be forgiven.

First, a full frame, caught while the wind had dropped for a moment:

Second, a crop of Dogwood blooms with a visitor:

Sorry, the pretty tulips have passed their prime!

This lens is very well made, focusing very smoothly, and is a pleasure 
to use.  I think I will find it quite useful.
