The LAND-DWELLER is a good model for test shots using a Leica macro lens that is over 30 years old: the Leica Macro-Elmarit R 1:2.8/60mm.

Some girls have all the luck....

Never give up hope.... my wife's 36mm, Lady Luck. 😍 PS: If there's one constant in life, it's my Muse's consistent Lady Luck. It's a real thing, and is wonderful. While she was being ever-so-kind helping our (my) 90 y/o dad this weekend, Nick from Mayors

the Land-Dweller last weekend, at Wagner, Vienna. Thank you very much, Mr. T, for your time, professional input, and generous hospitality. While I buried one shot in a previous post, here comes the series. I found case, bracelet and look&feel very convinc
