Well the " Sun and Clouds over Lake Ediza " is certainly worth the price of
admission. A better shot than that I've rarely seen.  You may have out
Anseled Ansel on this one.
And a hand held shot with tripod sensibilities yet! Who would a thought!
A merge really?
Did you miss many shots not having a lens with some reach in your back
pocket?  I do think its worth it committing to a single focal length even
for instance and important photo opportunities such as these. Yet we see
some shots fly by and we wave at them... As if we don't have a camera with
us.
At the very lowest iso we do have some real cropping power. But still a
mixed bag.

The new Leica Monochrom you need to have it. You deserve it. You are I'm
sure a very nice person; and this black and white photography thing is not a
small thing for you. Do those kids really need to go to collage? I'm sure
they'll get scholarships.
