Hi David,
mabe Leica's new photokina offerings will include a sensor that picks out the best things to shoot - with an automatic "decisive moment" button and an alarm that buzzes at you before you leave the house. :-)

Cheers
Douglas

Wrong light, no camera, or, in this case the wrong lens.

This shot of Justins Fudge shop is a 'fudged' opportunity of what could have been (actually is, as a cropped version) one of my favourite shots of this year's holiday set, though I probably couldn't have changed to a longer lens or have got closer in time to capture it in full:

Here's the more or less full frame

*Here's the crop in colour - a much too massive crop to make a decent print from

*And here's the same crop in BW.

It seems to have something.
Somehow I just love it and have to keep coming back to look at it.

HI Douglas**

I agree ... sometimes, no matter what you do, you just can't manage the best method. Still, you've done well to get what you did ... half the time, when I see such things, the camera is at home!

Of these, I like the smaller B&W version.

Nice shot!
