In keeping with its age, I put a Leica Summaron 35/3.5 on the Fuji X-E1, a lens dating from 1956, purchased from a former LUG contributor. Here are three images: Parking the DC-3 http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Parking+the+DC-3.tif.html A front, quarter view http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Front+Quarter+View+DC-3.tif.html And a full side view of the American Airlines Flagship Detroit http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/American+Airlines+Flagship+Detroit.tif.html And, as an afterthought, life is not always rosy, even when you have money. The owner of this very expensive touring bus turned too closely around a post this morning when departing from Bonnaroo. The aluminum wheel must be replaced before it can make the seven hour drive home. Body work will follow. :-( http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Bonnaroo+Boo+Boo.tif.html Comments and critiques are welcomed and appreciated. -- Jim Nichols Tullahoma, TN USA
