For this week's pictures, I spent a day with the C-V 15mm Heliar mounted on my M4. I'm finding that I have to use this lens on a regular basis to stay "current" so to speak. If I don't, I find myself standing way too far back from the subject and have learn to move up. That wasn't a problem with this week's PAW. It was taken at local children's playground, and I was close enough to the subject to risk injury. <http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=640534> Alternate 1 is a similar photo taken from a slightly different perspective. It was a tough call for me to choose between this and the PAW. <http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=640539> Finally, for something completely different, I used the 15mm on a 1964 Valiant a friend of mine just bought with plans for restoring. The horizontal grille, IMO, lends itself to the ultrawide treatment. <http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=6640541> As before, cheap flatbed scanner, no enhancement, but I am learning some of the "tricks of the trade." And as always, comments are welcome and encouraged. Fire away! Best, Ira Silverman - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
