RE: [Leica] What do you do with your Images?

["Ken Lee" <kenphoto@home.com>]

Hi Steve,

In January, I sold all my Nikon gear and bought scanners and a printer. My
plan was to try to put together a web site. So far, I haven't had the
inspiration to do it. I might just start now!

 Ken,

There are probably 10's of thousands in the same boat you are, but have you
NOT noticed we are in the information age, meaning the Internet and
self-publishing. Why not do what several others are doing here on the LUG
and post a Photo-A-Week (PAW). Self publishing has become pretty commonplace
on the internet--instead of bailing out, create your own web site and
publish your pictures for all of us to see.
