If you are planning to buy property in Bali contact me first. My wife and I have earned (and paid for) a Phd in what not to do. Between meetings with suppliers and contractors I had only a little time to take photos but did add four pictures to my motorcycle collection which can be viewed here: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Bali+Pix+May+June+2007/ http://tinyurl.com/2zg2ry The straw hat cyclist was shot with the 90mm Elmarit (despite what I say in the narrative about using the Tri Elmar)- the other three photos were taken with the coded Tri Elmar on the M8, with a Leica IR cut filter in place. I have some interesting infra red photos of the Tanah Lot temple which will be uploaded later - using the 15 Heliar as well as the Tri Elmar. The 4 stop reduction of the B&W 92 filter coupled with the slow aperture of the Heliar and the Tri Elmar leads us into slow shutter speeds and Hi ISOs and greater noise very quickly. Cheers Howard (back in Hong Kong where he is so glad he does not have to deal with contractors, builders and tradesmen)
