I posted one of them at http://gallery.leica-users.org/OliverBrykPhotos/04Aug02_01 . I used a current model Elmarit-M 90mm/f2.8 on Kodak BW400CN, probably at f/5.6, no filter, on 08/22/04 at about 1 p.m. local daylight time, with broken cloud cover. Is this flare typical of the 90mm Elmarit? Although I have often made contre jour pictures I've not seen this kind of diffused flare before. Oliver Bryk
