A Porsche Carrera

There are a lot of lovely Porsches in London. This one caught my eye as a recent arrival to the car park below our apartment. As I swung by on my cargo bike, returning home with my daughter from her daycare, the red looked too good not to shoot. However, the light wasn't ideal. Nevertheless, it seemed to work, and more so with a slight crop to focus on the shapes, rather than the car's overall silhouette. The Leica M11 really is a marvel.

Its worth noting that the aperture number is misreading in the data here. I had it set on 5-7 ish. Certainly not 16. And my shutter speed was quicker too. I'll try to figure out why there is a misread going on.
