These are amazing portraits, Stef.Shots from Madagascar with the M9 :
I especially admire the restrained processing, which doesn't let the color get in the way of the main subject -- the children.

What a terrific pair of images, Kurt! They work very well together, or they could easily stand on their own.
All three are superb, Matt. In addition to the standout color and sharpness, the composition is spot-on. Bravo!
Beautiful shots Stef. Looking forward to more.Thanks for all your comments...On this last trip to Madagascar, I went on a sailboat : I did experiment some problems inherent to any electronic device :
1) My Lexar 8Go SD mixed some pictures (2 in 1) or store them very badly so they were lost !! So bad.
2) The battery loader 220V cord suddenly stopped working ; happily I could use the 12V entry to load batteries
3) So many pictures to take ! I miss some Go of SD cards ; so I finally took 10.5mp Jpeg ..
Guess what ? I have brought my good 'old' Leica mP with me and a bunch of Velvia rolls : I was so happy, no batteries, no SD cards, plenty of film, so light in the hand, so discret ; a real pleasure.
And now the rolls are developped, I found the colors so rich and well balanced there is almost no 'DNG work' to achieve : only the fastiduous scan.
Finally I found these two camera extraordinary complementary , in wilderness !!!
When these are scanned, I'll share.
Just for waiting some Cape of Good Hope shots, a place I love
+1. That is a beauty, Woody. Wonderful light.Woody, So Sharp With Beautiful Contrast!
That is very kewl. Great shots all; I especially like this one.I'll have to catch up with what's above later. I'm on my way to the dentist. But, here's something for those of you who haven't had lunch: the Post Alley "Wall of Gum". Populist, protected, Art (capital "A"?). Thanks for looking. Cheers, Matt.

Too funny. Nicely seen. Art must be a short guy to live in that bag.:thumbup:Art Lives Here on these pages ... as you've all demonstrated pixelshooter, f1, Matt, Rayyan, Endre, Steve, Boymerang, James, Yamas and Woody over the past several pages.
Man, Stef, you are rocking that film.
But it also lives on the bags leaving the gift shop at the Milwaukee Art Museum.
Kurt
A beloved uncle passed away over the weekend. Too young; totally unexpected. His funeral is today, but commitments make it impossible to attend. We drove 5 hours yesterday to go give his family hugs at the viewing. This brooding sky greeted us as we left the viewing to drive home at 9pm. Seemed appropriate somehow.
Sad news, sorry. A very appropiate image, though.
Endre
