Really a very good composition Carl! I like this photo a lot! The huge impressive boats in the background with the small, fragile child in the foreground. Very well seen!

Thank  you Benqui. I like your description and I think the oblique angle add tension to the image. I was a wonderful moment.

Really a beautiful image. To become invisible as a photographer is an art and you seem to have accomplished that here. 

Thank you Brent. I appreciate your comments. About becoming « invisible» I read this somewhere:. At first the photographer is like a fly entering a room. Everyone is annoyed and tries to woosh it away. Then after time, the fly sits in a corner, unnoticed. No one paying attention to it. I do make my presence known then I try to become almost unnoticed. I just relax and observe. Giving the subject « room to breathe». Here is a photo taken by my wife Andan with her D-Lux 7. ( I hope that there is no problem to post this)

p.s. I do believe the Leica M is a wonderful camera for «  the fly in the corner! »

The color here is stunning, and there's no problem at all with posting your wife's  D-Lux 7 image here. They're great little cameras and with Andan it's clearly in good hands.

Thanks again Brent.  Andan has a good eye. I often shadow her so I see in a different way! Carl

Super use of the 50mm perspective in an unusual and creative way with many stories being told - B/W makes this work so well.  The colour version from your wife is also stunning and tells its own set of stories.

Thank you Robert. I am using more and more the 50mm. It's great for environmental portraits, in my opinion. Oh. And I will pass on your comment to Andan about the photo she did. I am grateful to her for recording this moment. Regards. Carl.
