[Leica] There is a light that never goes out

[Lluis Ripoll]

Hi Peter,

Thank you very much for your kind words, I was lucky to be on the right place, on the right moment and on the outfit …. all we need is to be patient and walk a lot.

Cheers
Lluis

I ask to shot a portrait of she, but the Bar was so dark that it was very difficult for me focusing at 1:0, I could hardly see anything, plus the M6 rangefinder shows flare in some cases, I remembered Ted's quote “If you can see it, you can shot it”, I finally shot and the portrait didn't turn out bad at all.
