[Leica] Lluis Ripoll's superb skills

[lluisripollphotography]

Hi Ted and Steve, mes amis

Thank you for these very kind words, I’m sorry but I have no words to answer. Just that I have learn a lot in the LUG thanks to all your comments and particularly on Ted’s lessons about observation.

Some months ago I’ve read two books I can highly recommend you, IMHO when we have already saw lots of images of the Masters of Photography we need a inner reflexion more than looking images and images…

“See is Everything” interviews to HCB from 1951 to 1998, I’m sorry I’ve not found it English
<https://boutique.centrepompidou.fr/fr/ecrits-anthologies/voir-est-un-tout-entretiens-et-conversations-1951-1998/540.html>

and “From craft to Art” about Robert Doisneau

Well I have no more words when I receive such words from the Masters, say only again thank you very much, I’m very happy!

Cheers!
Lluis
