[Leica] What are the most important aspects of a photographic image?

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

But that does not say much for how on top of printing my current work I am.
But I will say when people come upon the one or two color shots in my stack
of prints I show them. My 5x7 portfolio. They make a big deal about the
whipping out their credit debit cards. But I only take cash.
