Nathan,

Good to see the photos, and to see you had a great visit.  Wish I could have made it but as you know it did not work out for me this time.  Tamarkin's shop is quite nice, i visited it last year, they have some nice used gear to enhance the new offerings.

One of the pleasures of travelling is to meet fellow members of these lists. So, during my visit to Chicago this weekend, I had the pleasure of getting together with Greg Rubenstein on his home turf, having met him in Barcelona (sort of my home turf) last year. Greg took me on a walkabout to several great places, the highlight of which was Tamarkin, one of the world’s great Leica temples:

The pictures in the background in the first picture are an exhibition by Bob Palmieri, another Chicago-based LUGger whom I did not get to meet this time around, unfortunately, since our schedules were out of synch. But I got got to see his work which is truly amazing.

Cheers,
Nathan
