"Having fun" and if it isn't that, get the hell out of it and go get a bread route! It isn't a big unknown. the way you learn is go take pictures of whatever turns you on. And if you screw-up no big deal, go do it again and put the first experience to correcting the first one. Now isn't that simple? After all these years, near 50 now, I still have "FUN" in capital letters, whether it's a paying professional assignment or me just screwing around taking happy snaps. Hell I've had more fun in my 70 years of life while doing photography than anything else I can imagine. And if anyone says anything about sex, well OK the photography helped in that category too! ;) And yep it was fun also!:):) Don't touch it guys, I could be in deep do do! :) Hey, you know we gotta get a life with all this AA stuff and the squabbling. Let's get some Leica fun stories in here and how to make neat pictures with your Leica and whatever lens you use. The damn place is near falling apart and we're pissing around letting it happen. ted Ted Grant This is Our Work. The Legacy of Sir William Osler. http://www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant
