Subject: [Leica] A walk during the "golden hour" (non-Leica)

Here's a quartet from a walk during the "golder hour."  All on the E-1 with 
an old silvernosed OM 50/3.5 macro, handheld.  Warning, violation of the 
"no pets rule" ahead.  Who made up that stupid rule, anyway?  :-)

A "head shot"  (a 50mm is a great portrait lens on the E-1, with its 2x 
magnification):

Here's one where I wasn't close enough, nor was my lens long enough. But 
there it was. So I evoked the ancient LUG wisdom ("Just take the @#$%ing 
picture") and cropped later.  Really loved the low angle rimlight:
