[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Nathan because you are such a fine photographer and for being that, there
isn't any question in my mind. Certainly having been involved with literally
hundreds of photographers during more "party moments" than I can remember,
yes of course because of some, "we might say, Over indulgence! ;-)
There can only be one answer to your question, its always the same no matter
when or where.
>>>>>>> 3) I was too drunk? <<<<<<<
Yep that's it right there! :-) But you'll get over it! :-)

Subject: [Leica] Now I know why the filters are needed on the M8 :-)
Last night we had the annual Christmas Quiz in a local bar, arranged
for the 10th year in a row by two English guys at work. For me, this
was the second time around, and disappointingly our team came in
either last or next-to-last.
Anyway, I took about 80 pics with my M8 and the 50mm Summilux that
arrived the day before. My UV/IR filters are not here yet, so I got a
good flavour of why they were needed. Of course, the light in the bar
was horrible and dim, and so black came out as not black. A couple of
the pictures of a woman at my table leads me to ask the following: if
her allegedly black hair has a purple tint, should I conclude that:
1) She was wearing a polyester wig?
2) She had coloured her hair and so the M8 was reacting to the
chemicals she used?
3) I was too drunk?
TIA,
Nathan
