[Leica] Friday Flowers SonC

[Ted Grant]

Hi Sonny,
Well my friend I surely don't brag about mobility, I use a walker 24hrs a day much like yourself with power to go anywhere. Some days I'm so full of drugs & pills to ease pain. I have someone check my gear to make sure a LEICA M8 WITH "A Voightlander 15s/W" where I use the depth of field to make sure everything is covered by depth of field and wide angle and camera on auto! And I still get some neat S/W shots to cover my buns. And yep sometimes I get many deleters!! :-( 
By the same token an old Can0n SLR with a zoom lens allows a bit of a reach when required.
( I sold all my LIECA SLR's 4 bodies and  half dozen lenses) Certainly in error at times? :-(

All you guys bragging about your mobility.  I’m shooting from a power wheelchair these days.  Makes every shot look like I’m using a rolleiflex eyelevel to bellybuttons!

Well STEVE, my "so called "PALACE" isn't really a "PALACE" but rather somewhat like an apartment building with all kinds of recreation, dining, games, exercising rooms etc. for elders to live out their lives!
