Dear Steve
I consult your site regularly and appreciate your reviews and enthusiasm. I am a French public health consultant based in Bangladesh and photography is a real passion. Although I still use digital Nikon and Leica, because of the weight and size I am more and more using the Olympus OMD EM5. with the 12-50, the 45, the 35-100 and the Leica glass with an adapter. Because of the limit of three I have selected two portraits (taken with the 35-100) and a group (taken with the 45)..
By the way despite its political tensions and the recent tragedy of the collapse of a garment factory Bangladesh is a great country to visit: the countryside is beautiful, people are friendly and do not mind photographers. There is wildlife in the Sunderbans, numerous festivals and daily life on the rivers is full of photo opportunities.
Best regards

The first one is mind blowing.
amazing!
Very nice pics
Thank you to all for your supportive comments.
The first two portraits are stunning!!
Especially that first portrait is of an amazing quality! Couldn’t tell the difference between small and larger sensor… Excellent, well done!
Interesting and very well done images, congrats!
Fabulous images, wonderful 3D look.
the second is my favorite. really like everything about it: framing, lighting, expression. great photo.
He is a rickshaw puller ( hard work). Just cam across him. Dignified, friendly like many people in Bangladesh
That first image is incredible.
That woman need a spa .
I could keep my eyes on the portrait of the woman for a century. Pure human beauty.
Best regards from Lisbon

Le portrait de cette femme est tout simplement incroyable. Bravo. Quel logiciel utilisez-vous pour traiter vos ras (si vous en utilisez un) ?

Normalement Photo Elements ou Lightroom. Mais cette photo est directement une JPEG, juste légèrement recardée.
Merci.
Photos très expressives et…belles !
Wonderful work!

Very nice portraits!
Stunning pictures! Thank you.
Lovely shots…
Superb! Color is excellent. Thanks for sharing.
Wow that panny 35-100 sure packs a punch! GJ!
i don’t think he is talking about a Panasonic, I think it’s the Olympus 35-100. Maybe I missed it, but I don’t think he specified. I had the Olympus, and it was spectacular (as was the 14-35).
It’s a Panasonic. If you download the picture and have a look at the EXIF file, that gives all the details about lens, aperture, ISO shutter speed, etc..
Dear Ienny
It is very much a Panasonic Lumix lens.
