There are no requirements in terms of subject etc., just post whatever you feel like. My PAW is simply a weekly chronicle of my life, that is its only unifying theme (to state the obvious). I second the recommendation for the Leica Gallery. Of the other sites, Smugmug is good too. Avoid Flickr, it is a nuisance for the viewer to navigate. Happy holidays and I look forward to seeing your work in 2008. Nathan On 17-dec-2007, at 1:18, Fred Holzapfel wrote: > HI, I've lurked around for well over a year.
