Really great shot! But I am shocked by the flare. I've been grumbling about the veiling flare I get in backlit situations I with the Olympus digital zooms - although my friends shooting Canon have the same problems. But as I didn't have that problem with the M aspheric lens, I was shocked when I ran into it. But the veiling flare here, produced by the much vaunted Leica 60 macro is virtually identical to what I see with the Olympus zooms. Go figure. :-) On 10/10/06 4:30 PM, "Philippe Orlent" <philippe.orlent@pandora.be> wrote: > Wow Tina. I wouldn't change a thing to this shot.
