I noticed that Tom Abrahamsson is also a left-eyed shooter, and had
the same issue. Make the leicagoodies folks can come up with a
"SNOUT" for us to wear and keep from oiling the LCD!
(I think you'll find it hard to change your shooting eye (and it
might even affect the wonderful quality of your photos))
Left-eyed folks are "right-brains" and Right-eyed are "left-brains".
I found this summary on the web:
Left Brain RIght Brain
Logical Random
Sequential Intuitive
Rational Holistic
Analytical Synthesizing
Objective Subjective
Looks at parts Looks at wholes
I think anyone who's seen your work would put you "on the right" (or
using your left eye!).
