Shots of Leica gear were featured on all the covers so far. Maybe before it becomes entrenched as a tradition, we should do something else next year. One idea: Let's vote on the best image of those submitted and use it as the cover shot. We'd have to bring the submission deadline back into early-December to make that work but I don't see why that should be a problem.
