Interesting little shorebird, I photographed this Solitary Sandpiper while it was wading the banks of a pond in Calgary. These birds are small, about 7 inches including the long beak and can be seen cruising the shores of lakes, rivers and ponds looking for food.

This shorebird was somewhat backlit, but I still liked the way the photos turned out.

Trees, cottonwood I believe, shot with the Voigtlander Nokton 40mm f/1.4
Shot this with my Rolleiflex and Kodak Portra 400 film. Nothing like medium format for bokeh goodness! Leica M9 with a few lenses.
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 soon..

Leica M9 Summarit-M f/2.5 Lens Bokeh Test
Shot wide open, I think it passed, not only in the bokeh department but the sharpness wide open at f/2.5 is amazing :)
Leica bokeh!
