Sometimes experiments flop, ideas don't pan out, and you come home with nuttin', feeling kinda like a dummy. Yesterday was such a day for me. Earlier in the week, I had had the seemingly righteous idea of attaching my Leica R-21 mm f/3.4 to a Leica MD-2 body using an adapter and then going out to 'shoot from the gut'. You see, I don't own a viewfinder with the field of view of a 21mm lens -- they are simply too damned expensive. So, even with my belly button in cosmic as well as geometric alignment with the sun, I struggled, managing to capture the very top of my wife's head in this shot (lower right). Sigh.
