[Leica] Friday Flower

[grdalton at hotmail.com (Gary Dalton)]

Thanks for looking... I set the 65 for its maximum aperture (3.5) and the 
speed for 1/250 based on my old GE light meter. I set the focus for the 
shortest distance possible. Instead of fiddling with the focus ring, I 
attempted to adjust my physical distance from the orchid, pressing the 
shutter release when I thought it was in focus.
