Great shots! If you were able to grab a few more shots, you'd have enough to
do a coffee table book on rope manufacturing! (Don't laugh, I recently saw a
similar book on leather processing -- shot with the Leica M too!)

Cheers,

Jack

B.D.,

I just threw up a bunch of snapshots on my website that you might like to
see. My friend is a manager in a rope factory, got me a comp ticket to a
basketball game and told me to meet him at work and bring my camera for a
quick tour before we left. These were indeed "snapshots," hardly anyone
noticed me as we walked around. Shot two rolls of Tri-X in less than a
half-hour (tried to see as much as I could and was sweating like a greasy
pig pacing around in my winter jacket by the time my 2nd roll finished),
just used the 35 summicron, all in ambient light. I'd like to get back in
there and spend a bit more time, rope takes the light really well and has
beautiful texture.
