It never occurred to me the LUG family were any more interested about 
family, travel and street photos than they are about flowers. Yep some 
members are far more prolific with subject matter posted simply because they 
are far more mobile than many of the "older ladies and gentlemen." ;-)
Therefore their families, gardens and small local areas are the stage 
setting for their photography. ERGO: we see many more of this kind of 
subjects. But they are just as appreciative of all subjects.

Rudy your blind series is a wonderful shoot completely and different, also 
well executed as a subject.

I shot a similar subject many years ago only .... "DOORS!" All Leica film 
images which I shot during assignments across North America and other parts 
of the world when I had down time from my paid assignments. Finally 
presented the series for a book to my publisher on exactly the same day 
another publishing house released a new book called? Yep you might know.... 
"DOORS!"  I believe shot by an American photog, can't remember who, it was a 
long time ago in the early '70's.

Of course that was the end of my book idea! ;-(
