"Peaceful" is the word. And very, very "Leica". Excellent.

Lovely; peaceful; thoughtful. Well done. I often find 'color' overwhelming, so typically prefer B&W for such reflective images. But you have soothed my soul with the wonderful pallet presented here. Thank you for sharing. Best moments of my day! Cheers

Again, thank you for your kind comments. It's very nice to feel so welcomed and I appreciate everyone taking time out and having a look.
I'm super anal when it comes to the whole process of making a picture, bordering on ocd I guess.. Total gear junkie as well, I guess many here can relate, so I'll be happy to share.
After much trial and error and many years of testing, comparing, drinking heavily and shedding a few tears as well I finally settled on the Coolscan 9000. I shoot some medium format as well so that's the reason I chose the 9k. I used to bring my negatives and get them scanned on an Imacon, but it's too much of a hassle compared to what you gain. I only print 35mm up to 16x20 (my actual print size is 15.74in x 22.04in which is 40cm x 56cm) and I wouldn't print any bigger if I had the Flextight X5 sitting in my workroom either. I feel that 16x20 is the magic limit of the 35 neg. That's my personal opinion... at least for color. Black & white.. now that's a whole nother story.
I use Vuescan, ColorPerfect, Lightroom and Photoshop.

Thanks again guys. I forgot to mention.. to the person who liked "Bouquet".. that's actually a personal favorite of mine. The truck belongs to a 50s flower boutique called "Blomsterhandler Andersen", which roughly translates to "Florist Andersen". The shop has a really cool retro 50s vibe as well as the three guys who work there. You should check out the first picture in this link (http://oslopuls.aftenposten.no/restaurant_uteliv/article101547.ece) of the three guys who work there. Not your average florists
