Your B&W vs. Color comparison is dramatic. I'm not sure how the MM Leica would render the scene in B&W; but in this case, color rules for me! Thanks for sharing an image that has me thinking first and smiling last. Dr. Leon Pomeroy, Northern Virginia, USA "Here is one of my favorite images from a trip to France in September. I was wandering the narrow streets of this small town and came upon this scene. Unfortunately, I forgot to make a note of the town's name. Color http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/bensonga/PE+CLR+2012-12+Vespa+in+Provence+G H2+P1000383.jpg.html B&W conversion http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/bensonga/P1000383+Blue+Vespa+in+Provence+Fr ance+BW+Neutral+XL.jpg.html I printed both of these images for recent color and B&W print exchanges. We spent a week in Paris and then a week bicycling thru Provence with a group, staying on a canal boat at night. This was our first trip to Europe. We had a great time and look forward to another trip there soon! So many places to visit, never enough time. Gary Benson Eagle River, Alaska"
