Nice work Ken: Leica and Velvia in harmony
There are three things in life that are certain to cause a heated debate and snapped exchanges: Politics, Religion and Ken Rockwell.
However, he has posted a gallery of photos taken on his Leica (an M7 I think) on a Rt. 66 trip (something I’ll do one day) with some Fuji Velvia 50.
The results are just fabulous, seriously fabulous and wonderful work.

Since owning a Leica M2 myself, I just cannot get away from the fact that it is one of the most wonderful enjoyable pieces of photo equipment I have ever owned. And apart from telephoto work, my EOS 3 is beginning to get very envious of the M2. Who can blame it, it’s a wonderful camera and shooting slide in it is a righteous liberating experience.
Damn you, Ken Rockwell, and your room full of cameras.
