Tired of the Leica Marketing experts

Ned, it seems I remember you saying a while back that you loved to shoot in the snow. Did Cuba make you a sun worshipper?

Yeah, I still love it. But this year particularly it's become quite redundant. We've hit a record high of snowfall in 100 years (or soon to smash the record), with 1 month and a half left!
I love California 😀

H-m-m, I can look in three directions from where I live and see snow - on the mountains! It was 24º C here today but we have had quite a bit of chilly rain this winter. Keep shoveling Ned!😀

Lucky you!

Yeah, tomorrow morning is shoveling first thing! I almost broke the transmission on my car and on my Wife's because of crazy spinning back and forth 2 weeks ago. What a great life. 😕

Me 2. It's so delightfully cool there in the summer. Today, by the way, marks the end of winter and beginning of summer in AZ. We skip spring for efficency.

I can agree with your aesthetics, or not, but whether you think a Leica is prettier than a Canon, how are you going to take this:

Guys: great photos. Really. But taken close. If I tried to get that close at the footy, at best I would've had one player or another punch my head in or, at worst, been arrested (where a few punches are almost guaranteed). And, as to wildlife, the truly wild are hard to get that close to - though with some familiarity and a lot of bribery you can sometimes get close:

[M3 & Elmar-M 50/2.8]

but try this girl with a wide-to-normal lens and you might never play the piano again:

(she's better than 12' long and a 400mm lens felt, um, almost adequate)
