Paul,

I believe that is "Murphies Law"! :)

What a shame to have missed an exhibition of his work!  I have always
admired his vision! And tried to emulate it on occasion (always failed!:(

I have a copy of his book "The Creation" which I look at every once and
awhile just to recharge my batteries. He was a remarkable photographer!

Without question, a shame we missed his exhibition when we were so close. 
It would have been worth just hanging out on the east coast for an extra
few days. (damn I could have had another half dozen lobster dinners and
rolls!) :)

A good thought for next year to keep in mind just in case there is an
exhibition happening wherever the Leica seminar is held! (Providence,
R.I.?) Now that's a location I've never been, but could be easily persuaded
to go.:)
