[Leica] The Light in Ndutu

[robertbaron1 at gmail.com (Robert Baron)]

Lovely shots, Howard.  I like them both, but especially the first.

I am interested to know you all had difficulties with the menus on the
Olympus E-M1.  I have one 'on approval' from B&H and if there is one reason
I will return it, it is the menu system.
