Subject: [Leica] IMG: Palo Alto Fall (North of Herb!)

Unfortunately it was hand held with my lab pulling on his leash (which
fortunately was under my foot). Because it was hand, high ISO and large
aperture (it was shady). ISO 1600,  f/8, 1/500 - focused a bit further than
the foreground leaf. Most softness due to my lab (and shutter
release/mirror flap), but local sharpening of the tree helped.

So it's not as sharp as I like (remember, used to SK lenses on an Alpa...
stopped down from 3m to the beginning of infinity at ISO 50...). I shot
about 6 shots; this one worked. Canon 5DII with 25-105 and polarizer.
Just lucky!
Best,
Bob
