I'm working on the second day at Machu Picchu. I've edited them down 

to 217!!  Here is one:

Lightroom editing only for this one.  I think the color balance is 

better.  Now I have to go back and fix all of the others!

This was the M8 with the 24/2.8 probably stopped down to about 8.

 

Hi Tina,

When the M8 came out I'm sure you re-call all the whining and bitching about
it being nothing but a flawed piece of rushed junk!! People offered more
whines than old Mother Hubbard had raisins in her cupboard! :-)

 

It only takes a few of your photos from this shoot to illustrate how
amazingly good it is in the hands of a real photographer! And, whatever the
sensor is in the M8, it captures images like a virgin  razor blade on the
first shave!.

 

The rainbow, now this shot of the Llama posing are quite amazing quality.
What little I'm shooting these days I wouldn't trade the M8 for any film
camera nor other digital rangefinder camera.

Thanks for posting .

ted
