[Leica] Long exposure with an M10

[rclompus at mac.com (Richard Clompus)]

I?ve been experimenting with longer exposures with an M10.  Using a 15 stop 
ND filter, you can get the M10 with ISO 100 and the 2 sec self-timer 
function to open the shutter for 4 minutes.  This is followed by 4 min of 
noise reduction.  This makes it easier than to use an external shutter 
release cable and a timer.  Combing the M10 with the Leica R to M adapter 
and the R 180/3.4 APO lens, provides nice images.  

Here?s a recent photo taken at Trinidad Bay in my backyard:

The waters look pleasant and peaceful.  Unfortunately, a 19 year old kayaker 
died last week venturing out alone in the same waters.  

Be well,
