Robert and Maricela - Stoutsville, Ohio
Robert - my older brother.

Maricela – my daughter – and her mom Denise.
The lens I used was designed in 1956 for interchangeable lens capable rangefinder cameras. It is wonderful for doing available photography.

I occasionally hear people go on about how old glass is somehow obsolete optically or otherwise inferior to current offerings. Maybe true if all one does with their gear is photograph United States Air Force Resolution Test Targets. Both of these were shot using a Leica M2 w/50mm F:1.2 Canon and Fuji SUPERIA ASA:1600.
