Ma che gioconda e giocondsa / Nikon D1-X
I am stating this with great modesty. Yet there something in this photo that recalls the Mona Lisa. The fact that the subject is my beautiful and dear daughter and colleague is only coincidental. Perhaps not. Judge for yourselves. The lens was the 24-85 F2.8-4 Nikkor. The place was the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Perhaps the background should have been less in focus but I like the patterns made by the clematis flowers.

A simple geranium Olympus E PL-2
Mother Theresa / Leica M-4
This shot was taken at the cathedral in Newark, New Jersey some time ago. What I always liked was the relationship of the well fed bishop who is administering the Eucharist next to the diminutive Mother Theresa. The lens was the Summicron 50mm F2 and the film was Tr--X developed in D-76 full strength.

More shots with the / Olympus E PL-2
Another walk in the park with mu dog. The wall ashot was made with the Voigtlander 15mm f4.5 Heliar, while the long wiew was made with the Voigtlander25.. F3.5 Color-Skopar. This versatile camera takes many adapters that allow one to use many lenses. I used the adapter that allows Leica M lenses to be used. There is a 2X magnification factor that cramps wide angles. But these are really nice lenses. The kit lens that Olympus provides is a very competent lens.

There was something right about the skin tones of the D 1-X. Only the Fuji S2-Pro did better. The Nikkor 35-135 F 3.5-4.5 was used.
