[Leica] Img: Bird of Paradise

[kcarney1 at cox.net (Ken Carney)]

I have had the fortunate opportunity to study with some fine photographers,
though not AA Himself (God rest his soul, as we Irish say):

Ted Orland (AA's first assistant)
John Sexton (AA's last assistant)
Cole Weston (I got to hold the EW "Sand Nude" neg in my hands, like being
touched by the finger of God)
Martha Casanave
Kevin Bubriski
Tom Millea

However, I will tell you that the best inspiration has come from the
internet.  I had little interest in color until I saw the images of 
Constantine Marcos (sp???), and the color printing tutorial from Luminous
Landscape was a great help.  As of a week ago, my office now has all color
prints - I still don't know what I think of it.
