	Hi Group -

	BRAVO! I couldn't have said it better.

	Back in the mid-60's I was very impressed by a few issues
	of _Leica Fotographie_ (or something like that). Wonderful
	images. Does that magazine still exist?

	Two years ago I got back into photography and turned to
	Leica photography after discovering Brian Bower's book
	_Lens,_Light_and_Landscape_. Recommended if you're into
	that genre.

	Anybody know if there's an analogous book for portraits,
	people pictures and "recording the human experience" in
	either English or German.

	-- Wolfgang
