Here's a recent evening as the sun went down over the bay:

Leica M9, Elmarit 24mm

and here's a resident of the area, looking rather cheerful after some Côtes du Rhone:

Voigtlander Bessa III, Tri-X, Diafine, Coolscan 9000

The first photo made me want to push a birchbark Voyageur canoe into the water and join the second subject for a glass.

Wow, I once had a Bessa III. It produced lovely big slides and negatives, but sighting through its tiny viewfinder with glasses was murder.

the biggest mistake ever made was buying a camera without a viewfinder. A tiny one is better than none at all

The Bessa III is a new medium format folder, with the same rangefinder/viewfinder as the Bessa 35mm rangefinders. It's a pleasure to use.

I'm not at all up to date with the photo market. I'll need to check this one out.

Thanks -
