Michael, very nice varied set, like the deep rich color pp to these. 35Cron 8 element looking good.
Fursan, the color pic is my favorite from this page, really nice.
Gary, I don't think I can survive in BC Canada, don't know how you guys get used to the cold. S2 max exposure limited to 126 seconds, and it has the same noise reduction setup similar to M9, NR equal to exposure time and cannot be switched off.
I've been lucky to get a piece of leather that I've wanted to work with for a long time. Its shell cordovan, if anyone here is into watch straps or shoes you will probably know about the unique properties of this leather. I'm going to give this one to my dad
Thank you , it cannot wrinkle and it has a beautiful natural sheen which ages beautifully over time. I'm pretty sure its the only type leather in the world that cannot wrinkle. I would describe the feel and look of the leather to be very similar to a cherry skin.
Thank you for the kind words, my dad was very happy for the gift. I wrote him a memo inside the card pocket, I don't think he knows its there. It will be a nice memorabilia for him to discover one day
Here's a couple with my "new to me" Leica M8 and Voigtlander 40mm Nokton f/1.4. As you can tell, I'm not using an IR/UV cut filter, his snow pants are supposed to be black.
