[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Down there on the coast of California there was a not bad shooter. ;-) ANSEL ADAMS I believe it was? A rock & fern kinda guy! Not a bad beach, ocean waves, mountains and sand chap? OH yes and I believe he did somethlng with a "half moon?" Or was it a "Half mountain?" He was quite good actually. But it had much to do with his developing system, I believe? Something to do with a ZONE SYSTEM ? JUST LIKE A "SPEED ZONE AROUND SCHOOLS" I could never figure out how to use it" Because by the time the light and subject passed me while counting the zones? The Olympic race was over!" And I missed the shot! :-( My philosophy is? SEE IT, SHOOT IT!! KISS! DON'T THINK! "KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID!" Click! NOW WE HAVE A NEW CHAP............ "ROBERT ADLER" I believe? Damn fine shooter really, puts this Adams chap to shame using benches and pianos on the beach! :-) Far more entertaining to say the least. A damn fine lad all round and doesn't use some weird counting zones kind of stuff!"" I believe his system is sort of?? "SEE---SHOOT! SAVE!" :-) Awww the simplistic aspect of "Don't think, just shoot!" :-) While on the topic of ZONEs? There's only one zone in the world worth paying super attention to? It's called "THE DEMILITARY ZONE!" Between N. & S. Korea! Don't bother with it.....just don't go there!:-) Been there, don't go as there are guys with guns who would like to destroy you for taking pictures. One can only say about this fine/imaginative photog Robert Adler? "Hey Bob, just keep doing what you do with yer voodoo beach camera magical eyes!! click!" Oh yeah and have an absolutely wonderful Christmas Day and a 2015 year, if not the best in yer life! cheers, Dr. ted -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Robert Adler Sent: December-23-14 9:21 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: [Leica] IMG: Pt.
