[Leica] IMG: Old Leaves

[Alan Magayne-Roshak]

Going out on an errand, I took along a zoom lens my uncle gave me in 2003
before he died.  I had seldom used it since it's big and heavy and I like
primes, but I was curious
about how it might perform.  It is an Asanuma 45-150mm f/3.5 (also sold as
a Soligor) with a macro capability at 45mm that means the field of view is
about 4 inches on the
long side. This picture is the favorite of the ones I shot. It is sharper
than I expected, so I'm happy to have it.

In a local park there was a derelict wooden cabinet for event announcements
that caught my eye.   (150mm at f/8, hand-held)
