Damn it I can’t help but wanting back in the club lol. Great pics.
I felt the same way, and then bought an M8.
I actually think I like the feeling and shutter sound of these older bodies.
I've been using my Hasselbald X2D w/ 28mm and 75mm lenses, but I don't feel as inspired to shoot "everyday" subjects with with it... I will be probably sell my Hassies and look for an M9P or M9 Monochrom (w/ replaced sensors), and stick with the old gen Leicas... they make me feel as if I'm shooting film w/out the hassles.

I have to say Bruce that your enthusiasm for shooting Leica is actually visible in your images. I'm not sure that it is in technicalities of the camera as much as it is that you choose to shoot it when you are in places, and with subjects that you really enjoy.

For all these years that I've been shooting Leica, I've never owned a Leica lens. That changed today with the arrival of a beautiful LNIB 35 Summilux FLE II. Of course, my first shot has to be of Nora.
Congrats, Bob! It's a slippery slope....
Air show.
From the top of Bluff Cove Trail at Palos Verde Estates, looking back towards the LA beaches during an outing with Huss back in May. M240 & 90/4 Macro.
Some random street images from the last couple of days out working on my Parma, book project.
All Leica M11 with various lenses, mostly 21mm SEM, and 35mm Lux.
My Wife and I leave today for a few days in Florence with family for New Year's. I hear they have an amazing fireworks display there for the celebrations. After that some family is coming home with us to Parma for a few days. Our house will have children and dogs. Full of life and love. I will be very happy about that.
