I really like the b&w, it seems to sort things out better.  I tried the 
same image, but it didn't work out - too far away, plus problems with 
either camera shake or auto-focus I haven't seen before.  I was 1/30 
with the 5DMkII at 800, which usually works out fine with the 24/70L.  
Not sure what was going on there.  Maybe there is something to this 
Leica thing after all.  Whatever, the b&w is definitely the way to go  
on this image - nice photos.
