Experimental weekend - Leica M9, Voigtlander 75mm, f2.5, Leica SF20 flash, Fotodiox adaptor with older Nikkor 70-300mm, f3.5-5.6, 50mm, f1.8, 28mm, f2.8

Played around with different options over the weekend.  Firstly with The Leica SF20 flash.  Due to the high speed lenses I use on my M9 body, I do not regularly use a flash.  But after seeing some interesting shots from some well known Leica users, I decided to experiment a bit.  Then Fathers day turned up and I got a Fotodiox Nikon to Leica M adaptor, which opened a whole new window regarding the use of some of my old Nikon lenses.  The learning curve is steep as you cannot use the rangefinder focus system.  Here we go!
