Looks like a very relaxing place to be.:)

I could use a walk in the forest like yours! The D-Lux 7 is perfect for that!(y)

Thanks, Dave - indeed it is. Luckily for us the wood is just a few minutes traffic-free walk from the front door. A delight in this morning's spell of sunshine - and we were home just before a deluge arrived!

Just in case anyone is wondering, the Leica compact cameras hold their own when compared to other excellent cameras when doing stills.

These two images were just hours apart.:)

Does the Q2 qualify as a Leica compact. I got the Q2 as a hiking camera so I wouldn't be tempted to lug my 907x + multiple lenses on 3 days hikes like this one on Routeburn Track, NZ. This is Lake MacKenzie early morning on day 2 of the hike.

Absolutely! Thanks for sharing, and the essence of compact cameras is exactly what you have described regarding a 3-day hike!:):):)

Love that photo!
