Bath Time part 1

Last year I sold my Leica 50mm summilux to purchase the 35mm summilux FLE.  Since that time, I’ve really missed having a more compact 50mm lens (I have the huge noctilux).  When the Leica 50mm summicron APO was announced I pre-ordered it (Dale Photo).  Today, it finally came in the mail and even though I’ve only take a few shots, I’m extremely impressed.  I don’t think I’ve ever had or seen a lens that is as sharp as it.  Here is one of my first shots.

The Hot Dog Man

Recently, I’ve been excited to post pics taken with my Leica M 240.  I still have my Leica M Monochrom and love how it renders black and white pictures.  We were in New Orleans and one evening a friend and I took a walk down Bourbon street.  I was amazed how crazy it was even on a Tuesday night.  It’s definitely, a great town to take pictures.

What’s next?

I’ve been busy with work the last few days and haven’t had time to post.  Peter at Prosophos featured Photographer Ashwin Rao today, you should go there and read his profile, he’s a great guy.

This shot was taken a few weeks ago at my Aunt’s house.  I felt the hardwood floor complimented my little girls dress.
