The irony of the digital M ...

I had my M240 lock up only once (that I recall). I forget now what provoked it but it did lock up on me as you described. It's only happened once but I admit it too was at a critical moment while I was traveling this summer.

Fortunately I also had my M2 on me at that moment ready to go and was able to recover by switching to film for that moment.

So jokes or not, why does an M lockup at critical moments? ;)
 
I have showed your photos to my daughters and now there is no way I could ever take them to Australia :bang::bang:
 
You know, you coulda walked into that shed with the python there and no meal at-hand. And he headed towards your darkroom after that? Pythons and darkrooms......bad combination, LOL...

Great captures though.
 
Think I had my M2 around my neck once, many years ago, and I saw the most amazing thing happening before me. I took one shot, and then realized that I was at the end of the roll. Damn you Leica :)
 
OMG four meters. To think they once had legs.....
In general, snakes are to be respected, not feared. They will only attack if they feel threatened. A Python, though huge, is normally quite peaceful, for after all, humans are not on its menu list. In fact they feel strangely warm and velvety if one handles (a habituated) one.
