[Leica] Leica Picture Week

[pdzwig at summaventures.com (Peter Dzwig)]

In reality is this just restarting the competition that we used to run every
month? Happy if it is.

In which case we have at least a template set of rules. Brian and Ted know 
who
the judges were and they could always ask them if they would like to take 
part
in the judging again.

I personally think that once a month is a good idea as getting film processed
isn't that straightforward these days.

The old comp was always fun and much missed.

Just thinking out loud.
