5 Frames with... my 28mm

At the end of last years European adventure when we had to head home and pretend to be responsible adults, I snuck in one last moment of childlike abandon and got a 28mm Summicron lens (second-hand, I’m not THAT crazy) for the Leica. As it turns out, my M4-2 doesn’t have a 28mm lens line on the viewfinder so I’ve really struggled to use it. And I’ve not taken it with me and basically pondered selling it for a more expensive 50mm lens (can you say Summilux ASPH?).

I thought I’d better give it one last try and see if I could get anything I liked with it. Jury is still out, but I liked it more than I did in the winter...
