I've added a few pictures to the February 2013 pictures taken with a D-Lux 6. The new ones include M8 photographs from November 2006 and M shots from yesterday. Some samples attached here. The rest of the pictures are on http://vikasgore.zenfolio.com/p834337926

 

As always, all comments are welcome and including some criticism as well to help me improve.

I have been consolidating some of my old scanned in transparencies of Chinatown and I decided to post some of them on my Zenfolio site with the more recent Chinatown images. Nothing wrong with that in itself but this is no longer a gallery with exclusively Leica equipment.

 

a) most of the images taken before the 90s are not taken with Leica equipment (couldn't afford it back then).

 

B) the transparencies were much more recently scanned after they had all undergone severe deterioration in the hot and tropical climates that I have mostly lived in. VueScan and a Nikon scanner did their best to recover them but these images are not in good shape by today's standards.

 

So if you look through the images please be aware of that. Most of the images with a Minolta XE1 (Leica had a clone of that back then though!) with Minolta glass. If the file names have "NSP" in them they were taken by my wife with a Minolta XD1 (?) with the two of us sharing lenses.

Vikas,

 

A nice series with the composition, colors and clarity. Please stick to your Leica pictures. I have many slides and b&w negatives that are excellent but will not post them because they were taken with my Nikon's or other formats because of forum protocol.

Hi Paul

 

The three pictures included in my post are all taken using Leica equipment. The Zenfolio site though has others as well (though the picture name identifies the non-Leica ones. I tried separating the Leica and non-Leica ones and although with Jeffrey Friedl's add-in for Zenfolio I can separate the pictures, there are others viewing the site who are looking at the pictures generally and not specifically at "Leica Pictures". Particularly for them it breaks the flow of viewing the collection of pictures.

 

Of course, I will avoid posting non-Leica samples here.

I don't get the point of the first shot? maybe you should try a 90mm

 

Yes, I thought of that but I wanted to show a little more of the context. Maybe I could have framed it a little tighter.
