[Leica] IMG: Old Lens, New B'fly

[jhnichols at lighttube.net (Jim Nichols)]

Thanks, George.  I have to admit that I had no intention of using the 5MB 
E-1 to shoot butterflies, which, of necessity, usually requires a lot of 
cropping.  I was trying to get some flower images when I noticed the 
b'flies.
