Thank you, Peter! I hope I'm not bombing this thread too hard with pictures, but here's two ways I found people spending their lunch break in Stockholm today.

Nap in the grass.

Cigarettes and oranges.


P.s Out of the 18mm and the 35mm lenses I got with the camera I imagined I would come to prefer the former, but there's just something about this lens that makes even a wide angle sort of guy like myself reconsider things. D.s

Your images look warmer than my recollection of Stockholm. I got off the train at 2 AM in the winter of 1960, snowing heavily, and all hotels closed at midnight. Finally, some kind soul let me in out of the cold! I was impressed by the friendly people and the theaters played jazz at intermission.

I'm getting my X-Pro1 and 35/1.4 (again) on Monday. Until then, I'll peruse the images of you and others.

It's a strange thing, in many ways people seem more open during the summer but the warmth runs a bit deeper during the (now rare) cold of the winter months. It's just a bit harder to reach. No jazz during the intermissions of anything now, though... No doubt due to intermissions is something people apparently don't have time for any longer. The 60's must've been a great time to see Stockholm, if not for the friendly people, certainly for the jazz. Hope you'll continue to enjoy that camera lens combination! I certainly did today:

Apologies for the wall of photos, restraint is not one of my virtues.

Met a random cat on my little walk around the neighborhood today, came back in and realized how phenomenal this lens is. Sharp as a tack, but definitely not lacking in that funny word called 'character' either.
