These are snaps from Dave Wyman's plein air tour of California's Central Coast. I shot on a LEICA M9 in DNG, added creative input in Apple Aperture 3, exported the results as JPG, and ran them through Photoshop CS5 to resize, sharpen and brand them for the "Internet." What lens apertures did I use? Who knows? The only difference it makes is having more or less in focus, which on a LEICA, you can read off the lens before taking the picture. I used large apertures in the dark so I could work in the dark, and smaller apertures when I had light so I could get more in focus.
