[Leica] Photo: The Old Time Fiddlers of Black Canyon

[Jim at hemenway.com (Jim Hemenway)]

Adam:

Of the four fiddler photos, the first is the best.  I like the way in 
which you conveyed the affection between the two subjects.  The other 
three are, to my eye "studies". But that's not taking anything away from 
them.
