[Leica] IMG: Another Swallowtail

[Philippe]

Hi Jim, as more often than needed, I was teasing you - this shot is superb. Don’t waste bucks on gear and keep to what matters, VISION !

But as already stated here before, I love that 4/3 Oly glass, maybe more than other brands …

Also saw that Joel surfaced on the Oly list - I think he’s the one who got my own (purchased in Barcelona with Lluis) ZD 50-200 :-)

Amities

Philippe

I sometimes apply Neat Image, but decided not to do that on this one.  Of course, the Dark Lady herself chooses where she will pose for me.  I shoot a lot of snaps and try to make the best selection I can find, and then do a final crop.  I am currently pondering the acquisition of a more capable camera body.
