Leica M8 + Biogon 2/35

I really like both of these, nice work. I have a fondness for reflections too, like many others. This looks like a magical location.

These are both quite lovely. #1 especially reminds me of some of the early impressionistic landscapes of Edward Steichen.

[John R Smith]

Yes, Steichen indeed. And here in the UK, Edwin Smith could come up with this sort of thing, usually with a stately home in the background. And that Leitz (Zeiss?) 35mm Biogon does have a glorious richness of tone, a nice focal length for landscape work. I guess on the M8 it will come out pretty much equivalent to a standard 50mm lens?

Thank you all.

Combined with Leica M8 (with a 1.3 crop factor), the Zeiss Biogon has an effective focal length of 46 mm, similar to the standard 50 mm.

I like #3 best of the very nice series.

Really like #3, but I'd remove whatever's half-way down the right edge.  The powerlines are a little distracting, but unless you have CS5 there's not much to be done there...

Thank you Eric and Mike.
