Daniel Ridings showed .. A photo Essay!"
Subject: [Leica] Still kicking

Hi Daniel,
I thought instead of "still kicking" you could've titled it .. "Still 
peddling!" ;-)
A interesting photo story / come photo essay as we called them in the days 
when magazines understood the value of multi photo spreads.

Today it's usualyl some angled view with a crooked horizon line for a stupid 
effect and that's it. Artsy fartsy garbage!
So given your dialogue and series of photos you've given us an interesting 
effort all round. Good on you! :-)
cheers,
Dr. ted
