Oly listers: I've been mostly away from the list for several weeks due
to work, rehearsals, and life. I hope everyone who celebrates it had a
wonderful Thanksgiving. For you Canadians, you always were ahead of us
in certain things. And the rest of you, I hope you had a great day anyway!
My birthday was Friday, so we celebrated it on Thursday night with our
Thanksgiving guests. My birthday present was an Olympus OM-D. For
several years a Panasonic G1 has been my "other" camera after my Leica
M8. The OM-D seemed to check all the boxes I wanted, and the
drastically improved sensor made it a worthwhile upgrade.
So I am now learning the OM-D's somewhat daunting, program-your-own user
interface. First results, with the little Panny 20/1.7 (40mm
equivalent), have been very promising.
My very first shot, a self-portrait in my bathroom mirror, turned out
quite nicely, especially when converted to B&W.

Our friend Carl took this one of me with my camera. Face detection works.
