[Leica] IMG: moon jellies . . . in 3D?

[abridge at mac.com (Adam Bridge)]

Thanks Marc,

Between a tiny depth of field, being hand-held, and the pane itself, 
sharpness wasn't likely. :-)

I appreciate your thoughts on the depth sensation. This must be a kind of 
pyscho-visual phenomena because when working on images with this deep blue 
background in Lightroom the panes at each edge seem to float above the image 
in a startlingly vivid manner, as if the image were recessed back into the 
plane of the display.
