The Lyrics From “Loving Cup”

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , on June 30, 2013 by johnbuckley100

We love the verse that goes:

“I’m the man who walks the hillside in the sweet summer sun.
I’m the man that brings you roses when you ain’t got none.
Well I can run and jump and fish, but I won’t fight
You if you want to push and pull with me all night.”

Leica M, 50mm APO-Summicron-Asph.

From Snow King (1 of 1)

See The Moon, It Hates Us

With apologies to the late Donald Barthelme, who sure knew how to title stories, didn’t he?  Leica M, Vario-Elmar-R @200mm.  First picture we’ve ever tried actually to capture the face of the moon, which we now can do, given the Leica M takes R lenses.  Sort of getting the hang of things…

Beautiful Evening For Crashing A Family Photo Shoot

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , on June 16, 2013 by johnbuckley100

The family was on the bridge over the C&O Canal in Georgetown, posing while the pro with the long lens shot up from the tow path.  The light was gorgeous.  By luck or opportunism, they’d chosen a good evening for the family portrait.  We didn’t have a long lens, but there was that gorgeous light…

And because the M-240 offers big, 24mp files, and because the 50 APO-Summicron-Asph is so precise a lens, we did have a file we could crop, and still capture what a lovely evening it was, and what a nice family they were.

On The Loveliest Day In Washington’s History

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , on June 16, 2013 by johnbuckley100

Humid and hot it was not.  Sunny and bright and no humidity.  On a Saturday.  In June.  Some kids learned to escape what heat there was by running through water.

Escape The Heat

Other kids want to control the water.  It is, after all, Washington.  Leica M 50mm APO-Summicron-Asph.
