Some portraits taken tonight at my Rotary meeting (Rotary Club of Bakersfield Twilight) with a 2012 camera using a 1937 lens in a 1932 building. Leica M Monochrom auto ISO (varies between 320 and 3200) with 1937 Carl Zeiss Jena 5cm f/1.5 Sonnar wide-open with yellow filter. As always, minimal post. Gotta love that Sonnar bokeh!!!

I've been busy and away, but catching up with this thread from time to time. Always a pleasure.

Two London gigs for me this past week, with the MM & the trusty 50mm Sonnar (favourite lens for live music), here's a small selection:

My brother-in-law loves his old hound dogs. This is Buster; a character is there ever was one. I think this was ISO 3200 using my 35mm lux.

Thanks for the comment. Actually that shot of Buster the hound dog was taken at ISO 3200 and I brought out the highlights with post processing in LR5. One of the reasons I was attracted to the MM was it's low light capability. I have made many a fine image at 6400 ISO with this camera..
