Thanks Charles. The Mrs and I went out for dinner earlier. We were walking back to the car and this guy saw my camera and commented. I asked if he would let me take a real fast portrait or him. He said sure so I did. He told me he to was a photographer and an artist. He made the hat band on his hat and I would assume his jewelry though that is not confirmed. I take my MM almost everywhere I go.
I know I promised no more hiking pics but we went out on another great hike last Saturday.... If you look close enough, those dots on the lake (in the first pic) are canoe's.
Congratulations to Mike Villa and his wonderful article in Steve Huff’s blog, “Going on World Tour with Leica, Voigtlander & Nikon”. I have been on Mike’s website and learned about the work he does with “Life without Limbs” which is discussed in this article. Plus we see more of his photos with his his Leica M9.
Jud, more very nice street captures!
Allen, I love when you have the chance to capture interesting portraits!
Gary, wonderful scenes! The 21 SEM is amazing for detail. When you look at the files at 100%, the detail like planes and birds is still there.
Shot last during the weekend with M240 50 Nocti f/1.0 and ICE lighting. 640 ISO but pushed about 1 to 1.5 in the shadows.
Thank you very much Ryan
Ryan, love the colours and PP'ing, particularly the first shot!
Jud, nice set!
Mitch, love the action of the last shot!
Different shot for a change! Fiancee's revenge. RX1R image while taking a shot with M240. As an aside, I am still amazed at the IQ from the RX1R and compares incredibly well next to the M240!!
Mike - love the shots from 21 Ultron...and what great color. I really like the latest VSCO film pack as well
Jud - interesting bike in #1, looks difficult to handle while holding a dog
Charles/Joakim - like the perspective from the females . Both the GR and RX1 are excellent cameras, the industry has come a long way in the last few years

Joakim, do you use the Ricoh with the electronic viewfinder?
Hmm, there is no EVF for the Ricoh GR only an optical viewfinder but I don't have that. I like the small size of the camera so I'm uncertain if I ever buy one even if the LCD has some real disadvantages in certain light situations
Michael - great post! The one in the water is just awesome. The 35 Cron I you have, is it the goggled version? How is it on the M9? A pain, or is it just like any other lens? Minimum distance .7?
I have the 35 Summaron which from what I have been able to tell is very similar in rendering....just f/2.8 instead of f/2. It may be my favorite rendering lens I have, just would like to have f/2 for the times its needed

Those images are amazing (as is the story). I've posted a direct link to them here for those who are interested....

Yeah some interesting sights in New Orleans rsolti13 - first visit for me but I'm hoping to go back again in a month or so. Trying to put together a small portfolio of street photos before the end of the year - personal challenge for 2013 - and it is a great city for that sort of photography.
Mike Villa - thought your Steve Huff blog photos were incredible!
Joakim, revenge is sweet
Ryan, excellent set! Beautiful tonality and warm toning
Michael, great shots, particularly the portrait of your daughter in the water.
EVERY single shot on this page is gorgeous. Seriously. And even more so now that I have a new monitor! Also, upgraded to LR5 and think I'm going to love the new filter option!
