My early PAWs will probably reflect the experimentation with B&W films as I get back into this genre after giving it up in 1984. http://www.jeffery-nola.com/PAW_1.html Week one is more of a lens test and a film test than a piece of art. I photographed my pastor and his wife Christmas Eve after services. I was giving XP2 a try at E.I. 200, and found that I like the results with the one stop over-exposure. The image was also a test of a newly acquired 50/1.2 Hexanon, which gave very pleasing Noctilux-like results. I also completely redid my web site, with a journal page for each image. For those who are interested in the equipment, film, conditions, etc., there is a page of writing that will accompany each PAW image this year. Please let me know what you think of (1) the lens, and (2) the film. Jeffery Smith New Orleans, LA - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
