These were all taken with a 15mm Heliar on an M7. I like dramatic imagery of the 15 and the way it can isolate people in even a crowded area like Times Square. Even better, people just two feet away will look at you with your camera to your eye and decide you couldn't possibly be taking their picture. All but two of these are full frame. Two have been cropped to what I guess must be about 21mm focal length. In some I've gone for an "all-alone-in-the-big-city" look, in another I was after a crowded look, in another I was just reporting what I saw. Love 'em or hate 'em, here they are. Comments encouraged. Thanks.
