Subject: [Leica] Leica-using combat photographer website - please take a look

I'm passing on the URL of photographer Jason Howe.  
http://www.conflictpics.com/

Jason is a photographer who I have known since he used to come into the 
camera store I ran in England in the mid 1980s.  We haven't been in 
close contact since then and it was a shock for me to discover that he 
is now running around Colombia photographing the conflict there and 
being published by publications like the London Sunday Times.  On the 
other hand, I'm a little less surprised that he shoots with Leica M as 
he was very admiring when I got mine.  The difference is he uses his 
the way it was designed to be used.

Please take a look.  As jason says, he has come a long way since the 
blurry pictures of birds he used to come into the store to ask me 
about.  I'm very proud to know him.
