But what else ya gonna do? Whip out the pen and ink? Nice atmospheric shot. -----Original Message----- From: H&E Cummer Sent: Monday, November 19, 2012 10:49 AM To: lug at leica-users.org Subject: [Leica] Power Failure Hi Luggers, Last night high winds (+80 kmp) swept Pender Island with lashing rain and blew over enough trees to cause the power to fail. There was nothing to do - no internet, no TV, no radio. So I went to bed to read by flashlight. Taken with the redoubtable D800E and the 50mm Nikkor f1.4. Some say the 50 Nikkor is not up to the D800E 36Mp but my old version seems to work fine. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada2012/Readingw.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/d3xylbs Please look large, as always, and C&C always welcome Howard (on Pender where the power came on again at 2:30 am - I know because I left the lights on when the power went off!) _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
