OK, I brought out my IIIf and an early coated Elmar and walked around for a few days. While passing Tommy's (the barber shop I have been photographing for about three years now) I noticed a photographer inside. It seems a German magazine was doing an article on the place. Anyway, I was drawn inside and while chatting with the photographer I noticed this young man: http://gallery.leica-users.org/album143/tommyssitting Any one who has been around people this age knows that if you wait a little while things change: http://gallery.leica-users.org/album143/tommy_sbydancingII I was using the Elmar somewhere between 3.5 and 4, not exactly its best performance point but it does provide the old time look. Comments always welcome. Don dorysrus@mindspring.com
