I'm very happy you liked them, I agree with you about the children pics, but as said, on these ones I was looking more to document a fact than to shot good pics. Thanks for sharing Steve, Saludos cordiales Luis -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org] En nombre de Steve Unsworth Enviado el: s?bado, 15 de septiembre de 2007 11:13 Para: LUG Group Asunto: Re: [Leica] Old "Estamperia Artigues" A _very_ nice set Luis - difficult to pick a favourite, but the ones of the children looking into the shop are probably the ones I liked the best. Nice to see a couple of self portraits too <grin> It's sad to see a 'real' shop like this close, especially if it was still profitable to the owner. No doubt it will be replaced by yet another shop selling tourist rubbish. To quote Joni Mitchell, "You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone". Thanks for sharing these, I really enjoyed looking at them.
