Interesting in how it reacted and you capturing the peak moment of cat re-action. to you. ;-) The first two I found the light wasn't doing anything for you, probably in colour it would've been very interesting. But in B&W it's acting only as an exposure amount and not adding any drama or effective lighting angle to the scene. The third, early morning street scene, the light is working for you because you're on the shadow-side of the street and the shadow side of the light making it add more detail and contrast / depth the photograph. As usual no matter where you are you come up with interesting photographs. Keep 'em coming. ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
