Hi Mark;
I'm habitual user of the light yellow filter. A shameless habit I picked
up nearly 30 years ago while shooting with a N****.  Yes, I had also
Leica then. It gives me just enough separation between the sky and the
foreground. A Leica lens and a BW 021 yellow, it makes for a deadly
combination. I think I have that light yellow in every Leica thread
combination possible. I even have one for my Rollei TLR, made by Rollei.
They knew why once, I don't know if they still know!
