In the 75 years it was one picture per photographer and endless subjects. For the 100 year version you might want to keep the subjects open simply relying completely on the images. Because a Leica, SLR or M, are used for all kinds of subjects, but still limit it to one photo from each photographer. In this fashion you may well get far more photographers representing and using the LEICA CAMERA! And I'd absolutely make it mandatory the images are acquired through a Leica lens. Body? Maybe whatever? Or it should be mandatory body also. If you want to impress LEICA, if that's possible? Being only Leica shot photographs makes that choice absolute, body and lens! Obviously more discussions later by any number of people. You sure you want to get into this again? Like you aren't doing any hallucinating stuff are you? :-) Cheers, ted
