I was particularly impressed, and pleased, that you were invited to photograph them, as astronomy has been my principal hobby for over 50 years. I was even more pleased to see that one of your subjects (in 3D yet!) was (Dr) Brian May. Call me crazy, but somehow the world just seems a slightly better place because one of the founding and enduring members of one of the all-time great rock groups is also an actual PhD astrophysicist. ?howard > On Jul 20, 2015, at 11:33 AM, kyle cassidy on the LUG <leicaslacker at > gmail.com> wrote: > > This past Friday & Saturday I set up a studio at the Applied Physics > Laboratory at Johns Hopkins and photographed the principle scientists from > the New Horizons mission with a Leica M9. > > Slate magazine published the photo essay here: > > http://www.slate.com/blogs/behold/2015/07/20/kyle_cassidy_photographs_the_new_horizons_science_team.html > > I have a behind the scenes with Leica geekery here: > > http://kylecassidy.livejournal.com/816443.html > > a tumblr post I made about it on friday has almost a quarter of a million > notes on it now (and I did that one with my phone). > > > > _______________________________________________ > Leica Users Group. > See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
