Subject: [Leica] photography today is GARBAGE

Nathan,

Kyle's mother was so upset by the post that she nearly split her leather
bustier.  I think she's terrified that her son will yield to pressure and
start to photograph Jenna and Barbara wannabees.

Isn't it ironic that the "garbage" he cites was just featured in today's New
York Times as part of an ongoing photographic essay series?

If Leicaphiles want to see gorgeous color and beautifully framed shots
there's always Dr. Paul Wolff and Walter Benser.  Their images usually come
with lots of technical data, and generally could bore the shit out of a
constipated snail.  Give me a Geebee landscape any day, or one of your
visits to the waterfront.

Guys and dolls,

How come when I spill my guts to the list and post brilliant pictures, I 
get 5 replies; but when some fanatic stoned on fixer posts a troll like 
this, the thread expands to 20 messages in no time??
