Subject: [Leica] IMG: My second roll of film in 2009

As you know, I shoot almost exclusively with the M8. But I have a  
backup camera, a Bessa R2M. It is a perfect backup: inexpensive,  
robust, fully mechanical (except the light meter, of course) and it  
takes my Leica lenses.

Because my M8 has until now been 100% reliable, the Bessa has not had  
to perform its backup function. But just to make sure it is used, I  
shoot a roll of film in it from time to time. I just got my second  
roll of the year back from the lab, and have added 10 images to my  
film gallery:

and the next 9. All on HP5+, developed by Copia Lab in Barcelona and  
scanned on my Epson V700.

Obviously, given that it has taken me 3 months to shoot this roll, the  
selection is somewhat mixed.

As always, comments and critique are welcome and appreciated.
