It is also the last roll I shot with the R8 before selling it. The glorious lens that captured those images, the 100mm Apo Macro, is now shod with a Gandy adapter and lives on as part of my Canon DSLR outfit. The first two are flowers in my garden; the third is my wife engaged in our usual summer afternoon/evening activity: sipping a rum & Coke or some such while enjoying the weather. This last image also illustrates the problems of K25--I cannot for the life of me get decent skin tones in that photo. For the flower shots this is not a problem, but for the portrait it is. This is where the degree of control offered by a RAW file really shines. http://www.leica-gallery.net/wajsman/image-71673.html http://www.leica-gallery.net/wajsman/image-71672.html http://www.leica-gallery.net/wajsman/image-71674.html Comments welcome as always.
