Thank you Anirban:

While I can claim creit for the photography and the framing, I was not responsible for their very attrractive positioning on the walls.

That was entirely due to the artistery of Jane Haslam—the owner of the land Gallery and a very accomplished landscape photographer herself.

Is this version of the Leica-R Elmarit 35/2.8 how it looked or is the lens put in kind of adapter?
I would expect such a lens to be a bit shorter?
It is probably just an older version that was designed like this?
What image quality can be expected from such a lens?
Probably at same level as a Nikkor-F 35/2.8?
