I was coming back from grocery shopping, with my X-E2 set for RAW+Fine B&W
when I saw this in our backyard garden.  Something in my head said "Take a
picture", and
when I looked through the viewfinder and saw the textures in black & white,
I had to capture it.  It has been enhanced with Clarity and Dehaze in Adobe
Bridge to get the mood
I wanted.  The lens was the first extra Leica lens I bought after I got my
M3 + 50 Summicron in 1974 - a 90mm f/4 Elmar LTM, which I hadn't used in a
long time.
