Tina I am completely bemused as well. Fair to say that I have always been
an enthusiast for Leica on this list . The L is why I am on it.
I love photography and really value my like minded friends of course. Well
the participants control the content of course. Maybe I am just moving in
directions that don't interest others as well. I have posted links in this
list to more than fifty photos lately (only some from Leica) but almost no
one noticed (beyond a handful of those good friends who would always look).
Never mind, we'll keep shooting.
