[Leica] IMG: More Yosemite

[rgacpa at yahoo.com (Bob Adler)]

You know I almost didn't work this scene. I was packing up and ready to head 
home when I walked by it. Continued walking and when I got to the car just 
said I couldn't leave without working it for a few or I'd never forget it.
Now I don't have to feel guilty about that one. Just goes to show, give in 
to the force...

Thanks Geoff,
Bob
