It's a good picture - a wonder if you think about the age of the
cameras.  The colors in the foreground are so beautiful - I don't think
the boys are too close together- have you thought of cropping the
washed-out background out?  Leave it as a kind of mystery what the boys
are looking down at/

Just a thought

I have just uploaded a new image at :

http://www.leica-gallery.net/johandoumont/image-29851.html

I'm not sure I like it myself... I would have liked it better if the two
boys in the foreground hadn't been so close to eachother.
The reason why I posted the picture is that it was made with a 50 year
old
Summarit 50/1.5 on a Leica IIIf and I'm quite pleased with the result.
I bought the camera and lens earlier this week and they both are in
absolute
mint condition, except for the rangefinder, which is a little bit dim.
