  • First image taken with a Leica. 1913

    From RichA@21:1/5 to All on Sun Oct 10 00:01:34 2021
    Not blindingly sharp (film in 1913??) but very 3D looking.

    Isn't it! Very nicely exposed/printed. I suspect it's the tone of the
    shadows of the people in the foreground that's confusing the brain. Dark
    enough to give clear cues about the lighting direction, but less
    contrasty than the figures themselves.

    I wonder how they know this as it is Leica_2 , wonder why the 2 is there also where it was taken.
