Great pictures. When I look at them and compare them to what I've been able 
to get with my M8 and my Noctilux, I realize that the problem might be that 
I just don't have enough light. I think I've been fooled by the "Nocti" in 
its name.

I'm going to spend a few days using the Noctilux in the daytime, or at least 
in places that have brighter illumination, and see what happens. I've never 
tried using the Noctilux in a setting where I could get away with ISO 640 
f/1 at 1/45, for example. I've always used it at the edge, ISO 1280 -2EV f/1 
at 1/30 or 1/15.
