[Leica] from paris -berton

[Douglas Barry]

Of course you all know that Lightroom 6 in Latin is Camera Lucida VI and the 
vatican has Latin manuals for it that you can download....

Douglas
whose name in Irish is Dubhglas which means dark light and more or less 
forced me into photography.

No worries Gerry,

English is basically just mispronounced French (see nice below), tinged with 
a pinch of Alsatian in some cases ;-)

François and Dobhgas

Camera Lucida and La Chambre Claire are just one and the same book.
Comes from Camera Obscura = Chambre noire (negra/black vs lucida/light)

Have a nice oui-caned ;-)
