[Leica] Scaling down my kit

[Oliver Bryk]

Hello Richard,

Thank you for your perceptive comments. My “radius of activity” as I call it, i.e., how far can I go on any given day and what obstacles must I avoid because of Fall Risk,has shrunk drastically. I have found previously ignored opportunities for using the 24mm and 35mm lenses.
“F/16 and be there!”
