[Leica] Snaps AS art! Good idea!

Thanks BD
    Yes - I see your point. It makes a lot of sense. Next time my in-laws
are over with all the relatives for some 'occasion' I'll have to 'look' at
it as a chance to hone my people photography skills. It will be better than
belting down a few just to get through it ;-)  Seriously though, this is a
way we can all learn. If you think about it, many pictures we see taken by
"the masters" (Weston's nudes etc. etc.) or folks right here on the LUG
(Sonny's photos in his home town) are of people - or places - they know
about or care about deeply, some of it their best work!
    I love the the thought!
    And, Ok, I'll even try with my mother-in-law ;-)
