It was very nice of you to write. I'm starting a project on the USA and am currently in Independence, California, population 669, to celebrate the 4th! Just down the road is Lone Pine, where they shot many westerns. I have posted a shot from a cemetery in Lone Pine commemorating the deaths of 27 people who died in a massive earthquake that hit the town in 1872. It was shot with an M9 and 50 Summilux, pre-asph, and processed in Silver Efex Pro 2. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/csemetko/L1027081+_1_.jpg.html Happy 4th to all!
