Subject: [Leica] IMG: 19th Century Lens Captures 21st Century Bird

Richard's posting of the results from his vintage lens set me to thinking 
about the 1890 Ross London 200mm f/16 brass lens that I have.  With the 
Waterhouse stop wide open, I set out to capture a modern- day bird photo.  
The birds were scarce today, but I got a few, and this is the best of the 
lot.
