Herb >Hello everyone,I have registered at the LUG mailing list + gallery a >few days ago and posted a few pictures to >http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Jean-Michel to Philippe Amard who >very gracefully informed me of the challenging topics and exciting >pictures shared by LUG members. I started taking pictures back in >... 1964 with a rangefinder camera (an Ansco I believe it was), then >I bought a Minolta X-1 and finally switched to Leica gear (M6, IIIc, >M8). I have done some lab work a few years ago, this is probably why >I don't believe, for the time being, in bringing too many changes to >the pictures I take. I have no favourite themes I would work on for >days but the way the light transforms the world I live in is >something I like to capture - modestly! The reason why there are >many pictures of the US in my album is because I have family there - >as well as in Switzerland, a wonderful country for picture taking.I >live in Strasbourg, in the east of France, close to the German > and Swiss borders. A special thank you to Geoff Hopkinson who gave >me some very sound advice before I decided to move from film to >digital picture taking. I hope I'll be able to keep up with the >email volume I get ... almost every second! Thank you for your >comments and ideas - I'm still in the learning process.
