Well done on that one, Mitch, and there are others too :-) Reminds me of the story of former English international soccer player and Fulham manager of the time getting rid of a young Niall Quinn who went on to be a multicapped Irish international. ?Son,? he said to the teenage Quinn, ?you?ve no future in football. Go home, get yourself a good education. Forget about this life. I wanted to call you in here to tell it to you straight. Man to man. See, there?s two ways of doing this. There?s the polite way and there?s the truthful way. I?ll give it to you the truthful way, son. As long as you have a hole in your arse, you will never make a footballer.? Sadly, too many people in photography (including myself betimes) think that pictures from behind work all the time. There's no definite route to the soul through that particular hole, but the eyes always work... mostly :-) Douglas ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jayanand Govindaraj" <jayanand at gmail.com> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Sunday, October 05, 2014 5:13 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] IMGs: French Accent (Portfolio) >I particularly like this one: > > https://www.flickr.com/photos/malland/10227777245/in/set-72157647720864997/lightbox/ > > Cheers > Jayanand > > On Sun, Oct 5, 2014 at 7:13 PM, <mitcha at mac.com> wrote: > >> This is a portfolio of 17 photographs that you can see here: >> >> >> https://www.flickr.com/photos/malland/15121712398/in/set-72157647720864997/lightbox/ >> >> The idea behind the series is to try to reflect the harmony and >> dissonance >> that co-exist in any culture in the style and form of the photographs, in >> addition to their content. >> >> C&C welcomed. >> >> ?Mitch >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Leica Users Group. >> See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information >> > > _______________________________________________ > Leica Users Group. > See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
