I am so old (and over-medicated), because the first thing I thought was
"christ that's cracking contrast", didn't even see the beautiful woman.

A stunning set of images, and an early adopter of the micro four-thirds
format, do the pictures come out of the camera like this or are they
worked on ? I see there's some posterisation on the lower left corner of
the bartender picture, is that an effect of resizing for the web ? I'd
like to see one of the originals. Reminds me of David Bailey when he
used to shoot with a Pen F half frame for Olympus (that's a good thing
IMHO).
