Sent from my Verizon Wireless Phone ----- Reply message ----- From: "Tina Manley" <images at comporium.net> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Subject: [Leica] IMG: Chicken Yard 1943, for Tina Date: Tue, Nov 27, 2012 2:41 pm I love it! Especially the lady's hat and the shadow of the photographer. They seem very proud of their healthy chickens! Chickens are a wonderful source of protein and very easy to raise. Good for them.
