Francesco:

1.I think that your Sharon2 is sharper and the skintones are darker. However
because of the perceived softness and the lighter skin I find Sharon1 to be
a more pleasing photograph.
2. The travel photos from France are very good. The one from Monte Carlo
shows some keystoning at the edges that detract from the image. The best  is
the one from St Tropez; the use of the foreground is imaginative. This photo
is superb and should be published!
3. The oversized files are reproduced  beautifully on my 17" Dell trinitron
monitor. Your scanning technique does justice to the Leica-M lenses.
4. After weeks of "spam" on shutter speed, back scratches, and other
uninspiring topics, at last we are back to photography. The 35mm f2
Summiron-M-asph produces images with spectacular detail and color. No
quesion about it, the Leica M  line is the "gold standard", all the trivial
griping notwithstanding.


Regards, Andrew Jordan
