Alastair:

I guess I could be more incorrect but I don't know how.

Thus my complements to you again on a truly fine set of images and as  
well to Leica for supporting such great results with their glass and  
digital technology.

And the B&W really does create the ambience.  They just wouldn't be  
the same in color; pretty, but not the same.

Great piece of work.

Thank you,


Bob

Thanks Bob,
all digital, most of the b/w will be M8, telephoto images are mainly  
E3 Olympus. Helen and I mix our images together. I usually leave her  
images as colour, as this is usually how she "sees" them. I love film,  
and hate not having the darkroom to go to, BUT when travelling digital  
really is more convenient, and there is only so much stuff you can  
carry.

Cheers adn thanks again

Alastair

Alastair:

Lovely.  Have to go back a couple more views to absorb, but just lovely

So; M?  R?  Flim?  Digital

Tell us, please.

My eye tells me M3 - 7 with B&W, maybe Ilford 100 or 200, maybe the
Kodak stuff.

But what was it all, really?


Thanks.


Bob
