Let’s dance

It’s been a while since I’ve posted a picture (ok, maybe only a week) my little girl.  Here’s a shot of her trying to get her cousin to dance with her.

Me & Mom part 1

I realized last night my site was down.  Unfortunately, I didn’t get it back up and working until tonight.  Hopefully, I won’t have another problem for a while.

I took a series of images last week while visiting family.  I’m getting accustomed to using my Leica M Monochrom mostly in low light situations.  I’m still amazed on how well performs and the pictures it produces.  Combining it with Leica’s new 50mm summicron APO creates a phenomenal pair!  The 50mm APO was without question designed for this camera.

Another Accomplishment

I know this is not a major accomplishment for most but last year I remember many times she cried because she couldn’t reach the doorbell.  Well she has finally succeeded!

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.

Easter Giraffe

My little girl got to experience her first Easter Egg Coloring.  I think the giraffe was her favorite.
