[Leica] Re:IMG Rain Jump by Italo Camerino

[pdzwig at summaventures.com (Peter Dzwig)]

Happy Christmas Ted. I am with you for a Lagavullin or two in spirit at 
least!

It is a REMARKABLE shot and worthy of the praise that has been heaped on it. 
Let 
us not forget that HCB did it first, and probably gave many of us the idea 
to 
try it again ;-) . Nathan posted a similar shot a couple of summers ago on 
his 
return to Amsterdam of a girl in summer clothes in the pouring rain which 
has 
many similar qualities.
