Thanks, Jacques. I did have a good time on my trip, even though the weather wasn't as good as I had hoped (mostly cold & rainy). I was lucky to get as many shots as I did.Excellent composition Scott, lighting, colors and contrast are very
impressive! I am sure you had a great time of this trip, thank you
for sharing your work with us on this forum.

Thanks, farmtech. I'm not much for polarizers, but like you, I'm puzzled as to why they would design a lens with such a weird front thread.reat shots my friend. You do very good work. Not to take away
from the beauty you produced, but those shots would have look a
whole lot better with a polarizer filter. I can't believe
Panasonic/Leica would release a camera knowing filters and step up
filter rings are unavailble. I am really re-thinking if I even
want to keep mine, which I haven't even used yet.
Thanks, Martin. The shutter lag is not bad. I'm used to the Canon G3, and the D2 is much better than that - but it's not as good as a DSLR. I haven't tried sports or anything that requires a quick trigger, but I think the D2 would do OK. The short telephoto (only 90mm) would probably be more of a problem for sports!SIMPLY AMAZING!!!
Thanks for sharing the gallery with us.
One year ago I was in some of the places that you "shot" with D2
(Zion, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon) and I must say I was terribly wrong
thinking that my Canon + 28-105USM is a good piece of photo
equipment.
Now, when comparing the photos, in terms of sharpness, color
saturation and overall impression none of mine comes close to what
I see in your gallery (which I find hard to admit ;-)
You convinced me I should get an LC1 (D2 being too pricey...).
One question: how do you find the shutter lag in D2? Can you do
sports with this kind of s/l or is it too slow?

Thank you, FlyGuy. I do check out the Leica site every now & then - thanks for your kind words over there, too. I think my "magic" (as you put it) is that I have learned to calibrate my eye to the camera's LCD/EVF. When I'm composing a shot, I'll move the camera all around while half-pressing the shutter, until I get an exposure level that I like. Then I'll compose the final shot. That's why I find a DSLR hard to work with - I can't see the picture until after I've clicked the shutter!Awesome gallery. Some of the best D2 images I've ever seen.
What's the magic to your workflow and technique?

Thanks, Rob! I agree that what's behind the viewfinder is important, of course. But the particular camera you're using can mean the difference between having fun and "working at it". And isn't having fun what it's all about?Hi Scott
Thanks for posting these great pictures,just been looking through
your galleries all good shots.Its not the camera its the guy
looking through the viewfinder,keep up the good work.

Hi Jim,Hi Scott,
Beautiful pictures! I lived out west for 15 years and your gallery
was like reading "Arizona Highways" magazine! Quick question. Do
you work with RAW,(not in the raw), and if so, do you find it
beneficial?
I have delved in it a little with my D2 and find it hard to get a
good mix of smoothness and sharpness if you know what I mean. The
JPEGs look great right out of the camera.
I have to ask... Given your skill with a camera and love of photography, why do you work with the G3 and D2 rather than a DSLR. I'm not saying a DSLR is better, I'm just curious why you have made this decision. For the price of the D2 you could have purchased a D70 or 300D and the kit lens. Again, please don't take as a challenge... I'm just curious.Thank you, FlyGuy. I do check out the Leica site every now & then -Awesome gallery. Some of the best D2 images I've ever seen.

That's a valid question which I'll be happy to answer. First, I do own a DSLR - a Canon 10D and 3 lenses. And I do use it when I need a wider focal length range or for "quick" photography. See here: http://www.pbase.com/sdommin/fall2003 .I have to ask... Given your skill with a camera and love of
