[Leica] Wednesday Weeds

[Don Dory]

Thank you Nathan.  I left the traditional format to convey the deep field
of bluebonnet.  I was using a 300 at 2.8 to both compress the field while
also focusing strongly on the foreground.  Didn't work in your case so will
rethink the image.  Possibly try a 400 stopped down a bit to better balance
the impression.
