ISO 1600 1/250s f.95 50mm (Leica M Monochrom, Leica 50mm noctilux, Lr4)
I’ve always been one who always likes to buy everything new. When I purchased a Leica 50mm summilux version 1, built-in 1959 I was unsure what I was getting. Now, after shooting it for a few weeks I’m truly in love. It has a very unique bokeh and colors are a bit saturated. The sharpness is nothing like my noctilux or 35mm summilux. I suppose my future camera endeavors may involve purchasing “classic” lenses.
I thought her yellow shoes, dress, and the flowers would be a winning combination.

This picture, taken of Crown Fountain at Millennium Park in Chicago was taken around 5:30 am. My prior picture was taken just 2 hours later. Look at the clouds and you can see the amazing transformation from a cloudy, potentially gloomy day to one filled with sunshine.
