Steve - this may sound nuts, but I think you "see" better with the M. Doesn't matter whether
it 's digital or film. I really like this shot.

Lovely composition and like the bokeh...looks like a Dragon Rapide, perhaps?
cheers:

Steve -

Exquisite tones and shadings, lovely framing.

Peter41951 · 01/23/07, 04:31 PM

I agree, the tones and framing are lovely. It looks like a Rapide.

Love your selective focus on this distinct period of history......nice composition!

I like this one, Steve!
I know i sounds strange, but B&W with the M8 can sometimes look filmlike.

Very nice indeed ! I always like the Noctilux look.

Thanks guys, I was just on the brink of posting this for a second time. I must be getting old :-)

First prize goes to Sam who identified it as a Dragon Rapide. Since there's one in the collection I think it's fair to assume this is it.

Steve, imho this one has that something which is not quite there in the Spitfire one.

Pete.
