Geoff, Tina, Alan, et. al., - Glad you enjoyed these photos.  Now   
let's all get out our old film Leicas and shoot more film!   :-)))

I am.  ;~)
I have my (B&W) loaded M3 with me every day, sometimes supplemented by the 
M2 or IIIf,
Rolleiflex, Retina IIa, OM2n, Nikon F, Bessa II, or sundry cameras from my 
collection; and now 
the 30D is also a companion (in case, as I make my way home, I see something 
on campus that
can go in the university files).

I have to admit the autofocus with a 50 1.8 or 85 1.8 is faster than I can 
do with the M, but I still
prefer the film cameras for B&W; to me, digital is for color and if I am 
visualizing a monochrome
picture, I like to record it in that medium.
