The two tourists in the front are dressed for taking selfies. This is at the Thapae Gate Wall, where huge flocks of pigeons gather. The tourists feed them and then stomp for the pigeons to all fly up — a scene in which many of the tourists photograph each other. Thankfully, these two young women did not do that. Some of the children run straight at the pigeons to scare them; so do some of the grownups. Tourism at its braindead worst. There is a sign saying not to feed or bother the pigeons, but it’s only in Thai.
Bob, congratulation to Q2. The images you showed have all been great. I hope this will bring you to the dangerous slope and slid down with M10 or SL2 in the future

I was a Sony shooter until I gave in to temptation and bought the original Q, which I loved so much that I simply had to buy an SL, which I also loved and used exclusively with M and R mount manual lenses. Alas, arthritis in both thumbs made it painfully difficult for me to hold the SL at eye level, so I moved on to the smaller CL, which is a delight to use and far better than I ever thought an APS-C camera could be. Talk about a slippery slope.
Bob has done so well with his Sony cameras and lenses over the years that he may not be drawn to the Leica siren song. But then again...

It remains to be seen! I’m heavily invested in Sony with an a7RIV and a9. I also have the 600/4 for wildlife and that will be hard to part with. But perhaps I trade one body and some lenses to get into the M or SL2. The latter was almost my first choice but my investment with lenses was too much to think about even though I still own two m-mount lenses. For now, the Q2 is my travel and street lightweight camera and I’m loving it!
