Rick,
thanks for discussing the April PUG!
I liked the point of view of your exemplary offering in April PUG.

visitor of concerts of chamber music and piano recitals, I don't have
the guts to take pictures
I like the BW angle in this particular photo. With your explanation
it becomes more intriguing to me. I am looking close and think I can
detect his eyes upon me. Without your clue, I don't think I would
have seen it. I don't suppose there is any way to enhance that

Glad you liked the photo. I had the pianist's

Thanks for the comments. I'm thinking that if/when I print this, I'll

actually like how his shadow looms over / between them - it adds to the
tension of the whole scene.

I really like the concept here. I think the image would be stronger if you
had gotten in closer so that the detail of the wind tracings became more

I'm wondering if these 35/2 FA lenses are a new batch, though. I had
one a couple of years ago and this one seems the same in all
respects. It's still labeled Japan, too, not Vietnam, so perhaps
that's a good thing ...
