[Leica] Thoughts on hanging photos

[Bill Pearce]

I have frequently been told that things should be hung with the image center 
at my own eye level, but I don't get that entirely. I'm 5'8". I have a 
friend that is 6' 4". Which of us is right?

I went to an exhibit at a local gallery where a well educated and highly 
skilled photographer showed a number of his recent works that were all 
printed to within less than an inch of the same size and all framed in the 
same sized frame. They were hung dead level across a long wall at precisely 
the same height off the floor. I found the appearance to be mind-numbing.
