HOWEVER, the position of the bird, is quite serene, and does not cry out for either a horizontal or vertical "movement", so the square in this case seems the best option. Love the tweeked colour and love the detail all the Leica lenes put on sensors. That DMR sensor is also "under-rated".

I'd appreciate the opinions of this learned group about the various crops: Vertical: http://wildlightphoto.com/temp/merl03a.html Horizontal: http://wildlightphoto.com/temp/merl03b.html and the original crop, with tweaked colors: http://wildlightphoto.com/temp/merl03c.html BTW, these crops are about 25% of the original file. Gotta love the detail the APO-Telyt puts on a sensor. All opinions welcome. Doug Herr Sacramento http://www.wildlightphoto.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
