And you didn't have a UVa filter like the camera store guy said you had to
have in case you had a cow shoot!

Those cow tongues are highly textured I think that's a personal endorsement
for the coatings on those Leicas lenses. Which did not always have a great
rep. like in 1933 I think it was. Some of my shots came out way soft. Which
is why they could not always got such top people to back them if I remember
right. And I've got a rare memory like an elephant steak.
Ted I hope your not crossing the channel to Vancouver to visit us all on my
