Two Up, Two Down
Leica M3, 50mm f2.8 Elmar, Fuji Superia 400
These kids were standing at the top of the "7 Curves" at Lombard Street.
Two of the girls were doing the digicam salute while the other two people were fussing with their camera settings.
I took my M3 out for the first time last weekend, and I had a great time with it.

Hey warren...color saturation looks great on this! even with the side/back difficult lighting. Is this something you are finding with the Leica? or have I been looking at too many poor point/shoot and phone/camera images lately?

you've been looking at too many P&S and phone camera shots! as you know, I usually do some editing of my photos before posting, and these are no exception especially because these were from the low-res Walgreens scans. However, even with the low-res scans, you can see how nicely the 50mm Elmar renders an image. It's the "look" that makes the difference that you notice. The color, contrast, and exposure are also affected by film choice and post-processing. since the M3 is meterless, I used a Sekonic handheld meter and educated guesses to determine exposure.
