For week 29, I showed you mostly colourful shots of things in my garden.
So for week 30 (last week), I have the opposite: only people pictures,
and all B&W. This is, after all, a Leica list ;-)
The first four images are of friends.
My 11-year old daughter has a rich social life, and hardly a weekend
goes by without her sleeping at a friend's house or having a friend
visit overnight. Here is a shot of her (with glasses) and a friend just
after waking up around noon:

Our neighbour Felix lives two houses away with his partner Stefan and
their three cats. They are great guys to be around. Felix is a fashion
photographer, so we joke a lot about the fact that he is in a position
to tell some of the most beautiful women in the world to "show a bit
more leg" or lean forward a bit--and he's gay!

BTW, the above two shots were taken at ISO 800 and 1600, respectively.
The more I shoot with my DSLR, the more convinced I am that when such
speeds are required, digital is plainly superior to film.
The next two friends are both Malaysian, but as is apparent quite
different, illustrating both the diversity of that country and of our
social circle here in Holland:

The last three images are of people I don't know. A happy couple on the
Dam square in Amsterdam:

Another addition to my cyclist series, also from Amsterdam (I know it is
soft due to subject movement, but sharpness is not everything):

And finally, a happy young fishmonger in my town, Almere:
