[Leica] PAW 3 dlridings

I know many think that a Leica should be used for street photography,
sticking the light box in the faces of bums, misfits, and what-not.

But I find street photography difficult in the dark, at 1/15 @ 2.0:

So later on in the week I'll try and mention some shots that I took
with the 50/2.8 Elmar (LTM) that John Collier wants me to be happy
with before the sale is final. Kind of like this one:

Or with the 90/4.0 screw mount Elmar that I bought for 40 dollars on
the auction place. I had to take it apart and clean it up myself. It
looked like a wet noodle had been left on one of the internal elements
to dry. I just poured Sears Optical Eyeglass Cleaner on it and let it
sit a couple of hours. Seems the smudge was only in the coating, not
etched into the glass. This
is one of them:

But I am rushed now. In between two jobs (hopefully) and ... well,
sometimes things are the pits, sometimes they're just fine.
