[Leica] Nathan's PAD 3/5/2016: Brussels lives!

[tedgrant at shaw.ca (Ted Grant)]

Hi Nathan,
I believe I answered this "Photo Essay" the other day? I think? 
However, seeing it once again requires a second comment!  :-) 
The magical part of your photo presentations are? " They are incredible 
"photo documentaries" week after week!
Obviously your day to day employment allows opportunities of travel & 
various locations to shoot in. That's helpful in so many photo situations.
But that is a weak reason for a compliment?  Why?

Well you walk your dog or just go for a walk or ride your bike in your 
hometown time after time and on each occasion? You produce incredible series 
of images as a "photo essay each time." They illustrate your photographic 
talent so remarkably well. I do thank you very much for posting them.  
Always a pleasure to enjoy a look at a series. Good on you lad!
cheers,
Dr. ted grant CM

Nice bunch. Unfortunately, the first scene is becoming distressingly
familiar around the world nowadays.
Cheers
