nice pics, i have the same set up and I think this is one of the best travel combo's (M8 and 15CV) to get unobtrusive close-up pics. I dont have a low-angle finder (like the CAmeraquest one), but I think that would be the next best instrument to add to the mix. Though I have used a 50mm AUFSU low angle finder with good results.

Un-obstrusive is the word.

I shot them at chest level or stomach level without finders, apply hyper-focusing.

Only the Notre Dam shot and the lady carrying the boy was done with a finder shot at eye level. :)
 
Nice photos!
The third shot shows really heavy "cyan drift". Have you tried Cornerfix? Or were you just going for that look?
 
"Cornerfix": never heard of it. I generally have more vignetting than I want: the CV 15/4.5 on the Epson RD1s is worse than the vignetting on the M8, and now I only have the Epson, so maybe I'll try it.

Have you tried the Epson Raw software for the Epson? I found it very effective for dealing with vignetting with the 15mm.

And OP. Thanks for posting. I especially like the third one.
