I see by the number I inadvertently included a shot my father-in-law took, and that is the one you liked. I have an identical shot, as he was standing right next to me, but I clicked on the wrong one. I will tell him that you liked his shot. -----Original Message----- From: Jim Nichols Sent: Sunday, December 04, 2016 10:30 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Dawn Patrol and Evening Glowdeo at Albuquerque The first one is my favorite, Aram, but all of them are beautiful. I shot an event like this many years ago, using film. You did much better with the capabilities of modern digital technology.
