[Leica] Nathan's PAD 26/12/2021: bright lights of different kinds

[Douglas Barry]

Wow, nice night shots, but there seems to have been a lot of building 
since I was there in '08. There's a great buzz in New York and I'd love 
to go back, but that is not likely just for the moment.

But I have also been shooting film with the gorgeous Olympus OM4T that I bought from Bill Barber in Texas who shipped it to my son last week, along with two Zuiko lenses, a 50mm and an 85mm. It is a truly beautiful piece of equipment, for me the pinnacle of late 1980s film SLRs. I am still on the toe of the learning curve of course, but I am really enjoying it.
