Subject: [Leica] PROOF: Photography in the Era of the Contact Sheet

After reading about this exhibit at the Cleveland Museum of Art I was 
interested enough to purchase the book.

Now I really want to see the exhibit. Cleveland is a bit out of the way but 
I may find a way to make it happen.

The book has been inspiring for me. It lead to the basketball player images 
for instance. It sits next to my chair in the family room where I can pick 
it up and peruse (and even look at) the images. Sometimes you get to see a 
sheet and then the image the artist chose. Other times you just see the 
sheet and get to make your own judgements. Sometimes the photographer 
captures the subject but other times maybe not? 

I recommend it. And if anyone does go to Cleveland to see the exhibit please 
report back!
