Recent shot from one of my many walks. Not much else to do.
I'm sad to see that this stupid habit of attaching padlocks to every bridge seems to be widespread. In Paris, we had to change some at least 1 bridge parapet after it collapsed under their weight.

Martin, I really love the way the Summarit 50/1.5 renders—such a versatile lens it would appear.
It quickly became one of my favorite rangefinder lenses. I bought it last year instead of my first choice at the time, the Canon 50/1.2 LTM lens. I tried two Canon lens copies which both had severe defects and had to return them. Then I found a good deal for the Leica 50/1.5 LTM les which came with fitting E41 UV filter. Turned out the Summarit was a very good decision for me. The lens is much better built than the Canon 50/1.2 LTM and has a different but also smooth and interesting bokeh. The only debit so far is the bit weird E41 filter thread. To use standard filters, an additional adapter ring is needed. I recommend getting a cheap third party metal lens hood which fits either directly or with adapter on the lens.
A few more taken last week with my Leica M3 and attached Leica 50/1.2 Summarit lens on Ilford PanF+ 50.
