Happy Birthday, Michael and yes, you are raising him right!

Everyone:
Thanks for the input.
Happen to love this shot of my boy, of whom I am proud. He understands about the need for work and earning such things. He knows that there is much to be said for used gear as well...that's a used Leica D-lux 4 around his neck.
The M8 is on him!

Happy Birthday Michael. Looks like your son is developing expensive tastes.

A joung man setting his sights. Beware Michael. Nice shot.

LOL, and why not? :-)

He'd better start saving now.

Michael, You are not going to think this is proper when your son requests an M8 like Dad has. ;-) Very nice shot with your birthday lens. The bokeh is beautiful.

Your son is obviously going to grow up brilliantly.
Only problem is his taste in photographic equipment might be a bit
biased :)

And you took it at 1.2 Michael.
That's really impressive.
A very handsome boy, getting a very good education :)
