For this image I used my CL with a Nikon mount (ZF.2) Zeiss 100mm Makro lens. I'd love to one day get the 60mm Leica Macro lens but since I own the Zeiss it'll do for now!

I don't follow cycling at all. I was expecting to see a pack of riders all come by, but I eventually figured out that the time trials are done one at a time, each rider surrounded by half a dozen vehicles, with spare bikes, cameramen, etc. I found a corner where a sharp downhill stretch was followed by a sharp right turn and an immediate uphill, so that the car with half a dozen spare bikes on top had some trouble making the turn. I caught about a dozen cyclists going by but they started to look all the same, except for shirt colors and sponsor listings. So who is Tom Dumoulin? OK, he started last, and had the best time by two seconds (over 10.9 km). I would have thought they would start the fastest first, but I guess the top riders want to see the split times for the others before they start. I think I have a picture of one of the other riders on his team. It was a good tough course.How could you miss Tom Dumoulin ?
Tom Dumoulin is last year’s winner and that’s why he started last.I don't follow cycling at all.

How do you like using C1 with Leica CL? Is it an improvement over Lightroom?I just downloaded the upgrade release. It comes with quite a few added cameras and lenses supported with profiles. And other stuff that doesn't affect me as much.
I like it a lot and I never liked LR very much, don't use it now. The new profiles for M10 and CL in C1's latest releases are very good.How do you like using C1 with Leica CL? Is it an improvement over Lightroom?
Just a whisker over 45 minutes by Guzzi ... :toocool:Some nice photos with the CL..
I suppose since I'm planning to buy a body, I should get to the camera shop and handle one for a bit. Maybe make a couple of test exposures with it with my lenses. Etc.
The annoyance is that now the nearest two places that have them in stock to look at are over an hour away by car and more than two hours by train. Each way. A PITA... oh well, such it is. I'll make an adventure of it and bring a Polaroid SX-70 along.
Um, you haven't seen traffic around here and in San Francisco lately. Never mind parking time...Just a whisker over 45 minutes by Guzzi ... :toocool:

No, I'll take the train and BART. That way I also have the chance to make some photographs. I really don't like driving around here very much anymore, and riding is even worse. I reserve the use of the car and bike for when I must have them or when I want to enjoy them.
