Anyone who doesn't take a turn anteing up with the rest of us, has sidelined themselves as being irrelevant. s.d. On Oct 26, 2007, at 11:24 AM, Philippe Orlent wrote: Marc, I could go with that. But then again, a forum of Leica users where people only would talk about using it could quickly become rather, how should I put it, boring. Not that I am against that. In fact, I'm interested in the broadest possible mix of people talking about any and every aspect of photography. Especially with Leica, because for that specific type of camera (let's equal Leica to M, to keep it simple*), some choices/ aspects seem sometimes strange. But always interesting. I find that fascinating. So streetphotography vs photojournalism vs art photography vs a technical or theoretical approach (benchmarking and testing included) vs a deep interest in the historic apsect of the brand vs ... I'm all very open to that. But when reading your mails, I get the impression that you're not. Which is strange, on a forum, because that's what a forum is about: sharing. Unless it's the Leica Elitist Group. Which this forum is not. At least, that's what I think. So, please, share. Being on an island too long does strange things with people's ways. Philippe BTW: which 'Cha robh b?s fir gun ghr?s fir!' man are you? The 'No man ever dies without another man being grateful.' man, or the 'You can't have a good bass man without a good grass man' man? * And yes, I agree Leica lenses are superb, too. On whatever camera.
