[Leica] on.photography: I have a new forum!!

[Nathan Wajsman]

I honestly fail to see the purpose behind yet another photography list/forum. The LUG is a broad tent and I do not understand the need for another photo forum. They seem to be a dime a dozen these days.

Cheers,
Nathan

That said, I have little enough time to respond to the many images posted on this forum at the moment, and to write more than a few words on them, I regard as an achievement. However, perhaps time will be magically created for me by The Great Photographer in the Sky and I may become involved, but, sadly the way things are, it's extremely unlikely.
