[Leica] Ted's Photo Essay Challenge & My Attempt - George

[Jay Burleson]

I appreciate your comments, George, thank you.
I really have no layout and design skills outside of the enthusiastic 
amateur level.
Couple that with the frustrating Lightroom book formatting, which limits 
placement of text and images, and well, it is what it is.
If there is any free software that can do better, I'd like to know about it.
