Few are fortunate to shoot documentaries as Tina does! It takes a "people 
person" to do what she does and accomplishes. I've been told we are both 
fortunate to possibly be blessed in similar fashion? Yep by a few LUG folks 
and others who know our photography. :-)

My very good fortune is my assignments have been along similar lines! Today 
they are part of my 380,000 photo legacy held in the National Archives of 
Canada and The Art Gallery of Canada.

I think what happens in some cases when people say "Leica" they don't think 
past the rangefinder and forget many of us worked with both rangefinders and 
LEICA SLR versions.

Given a Canadian-American publisher produced three hard cover books on the 
medical profession I shot in the past number of years. All B&W available 
light "live time documentary conditions" while everything was happening from 
birth to death illustrating use of Leica's. Both  M&R cameras!

You may like to have a look at the website:  TEDGRANTPHOTO.COM  nothing 
gross nor upsetting and have a look at some images. Along with a few other 
events  ....... all shot with Leica's! :-)

They illustrate what you can do when you stay the course along the Leica 
path way! :-)

Be interesting to read your reactions.  Thank you very much.

cheers,
Dr. ted
