Leica or not, it is marvelous image. The other side of the coin, so to speak, re your kiss etc. athttp://www.pbase.com/russellt/image/69855870 This image suggests what might happen, rather than show it happening.
thanks. the leica works for me. you can put it in your pocket, without making excuses that it's too much to carry. if something catches your eye, you can take a pic without the feeling that it's too much of a production or you're making a nuisance of yourself. the camera is leica-esque, in that it seems like it costs too much. on reflection I'm not sure on that point. the build quality and feel are wonderful. russell.
