Subject: [Leica] The 21mm is a tricky beast.

I got a 21mm Summilux yesterday (sorry Rabs, I've got more money than  
sense).   It's a while since I've used anything shorter than 24 mm and  
I've forgotten how damned difficult it is to use very wide angle  
lenses. People keep getting stretched heads at the corners of the  
frame and annoying things like cars and bits of rubbish keep getting  
into my pictures.

This is the only half decent picture I've taken so far and even this  
one would have worked just as well with a 50mm from further away.

Oh well, I'll keep trying.
