I don't know about the rest of you, but I find this incredibly calming, relaxing and a total feeling I could step into the scene and park my butt on the bench and watch the day evolve with great pleasure. It has a "technical look " if that's the way to word it? Quite unique and I have no idea why everything stands out in such sharp detail. You can feel the wood of the bench if you were to touch it. Quite frankly I don't think I've ever seen a Leica produced image in my 61 years of professional shooting that has the look of this scene. So folks ? Question? Is this due to a bigger sized recorded image? If it were film, like a 4X5 compared to 35mm? It's quite unusual to say the least with it's magnificent look. And the composition is right on the mark! Obviously one might say I'm quite taken with it and wished it was a shot I had taken with equal quality. Well done Bob. Good on you lad! cheers, Dr. ted
