I wanted to duplicate your efforts, but my Leica is loaded with B&W, and I
wanted to try it in color.  So I used my Nikon, with a zoom lens.  Your
image is a testament to the superiority of Leica optics, for sure.  I
normally wouldn't show my out takes, but for the sake of learning, here
goes:

I don't like the flare this lens exhibits, but perhaps that's because I
know
it's there and know to look for it.  Would you have noticed the flare if I
hadn't mentioned it?
