[Leica] recent images LKH

Dear LUG,

        Here a few images from the recent past.  The first was actually 
taken a while ago by our former exchange student Dr. Rainer Blaas, of 
Freiburg, Germany.  He wanted to go for a ride in my old cub.  There 
is joy in the face of the pilot.

        We have been cross country skiing lately.  My wife skied by this 
grouse at a distance of 1 to 2 feet without seeing it.  I decided to 
try Doug Herr's advice of looking as much like a herbivore as 
possible and did get pretty close.  It is not as beautiful as Doug 
would have made it but it was with a 50 mm lens and the M8.

        The last two are the result of what on the LUG is known as a Ted 
moment.  I walked by the kitchen as my wife was preparing dessert for 
guests.  I looked and said to myself, damn, that is beautiful, I have 
to photograph that.  The early version turned out best to my mind, 
but the finished product was both beautiful to see and to eat.

Thanks for looking.
