Subject: [Leica] Leica-R 60 Macro, The Flower Lens

When I began collecting Leica-R lenses, I knew I wanted the Elmarit 60 
Macro.  The one I have was purchased from the daughter of the previous 
owner, who, before his death, used it almost exclusively to photograph 
flowers.  I have continued his tradition.

The Fujifilm X-T2 sensor finally gives me a body that matches up well 
with the lens.  I purposely made the enlarged image larger than usual so 
that the viewer can appreciate what this combination can produce.  
Hand-held, down on shaky knees.
