[Leica] New pictures - not PAW

[pdzwig at summaventures.com (Peter Dzwig)]

Joe,

I'm about 5 miles south of Guildford.

The boathouse is actually at Guildford.

The ones of the hills: the first two were taken, in differing directions, 
within 
about five minutes of each other. I actually overexposed both - to get more 
than 
just the skyline - and then took them down in PS to get middle distance 
detail 
as well as getting the clouds in.

The Hurtwood shot is flat and I always thought it would be, but to me it's 
redolent of that wood as the sun goes down.

Glad you like the dog!

Peter
