Leica M9, 50mm Summicron and a Cat

3D Effect Leica - Vintage T-Bird Car

That Leica 3D Effect – M9 40mm Voigtlander World Of Wheels Calgary

Last auto photo, I promise! I Just wanted to show that amazing 3D effect you can get. I am loving my Leica M9 so much I haven’t picked up much else. Its compact, way easier to carry it and 3 lenses around than a DSLR, and the images coming out of it are unreal! Another shot taken at the car show World Of Wheels here in Calgary that I had a chance to shoot before it opened its doors to the public.

Down Town Calgary

Downtown Calgary – Interesting Light

These buildings are backlit, but the building across the street from them bounced some cool light reflections onto the street and the pub. Must get a beer there.
