Neil - -----Original Message----- From: Nathan Wajsman [mailto:wajsman@webshuttle.ch] Sent: 24 September 2002 20:39 To: LEG; LUG Subject: [Leica] Nathan's PAW week 38 Nothing special this week, just a couple of portraits of a brother of a friend. This gentleman used to be a boxer and then boxing coach in the former Soviet Union. After he emigrated to the U.S. about ten years ago he tried to continue in the coaching profession there, but it did not work out. He is now retired and lives in St. Louis. He is a typical Russian guy: jovial, open, friendly and of course likes a glass. I found him quite easy to talk to and to photograph: http://www.wajsman.com/2002_38.jpg http://www.wajsman.com/2002_38alt1.jpg Both pictures with the Bessa R2, 35mm Summilux on Agfa Scala. In the interest of full disclosure I should say that both images, especially the main one, are heavily cropped. The main PAW index is at: http://www.wajsman.com/indexpaw2002.htm and comments/critique are welcome and appreciated as always.
