[Leica] My early work 1956 - 1965 - Today year 1958

[Ted Grant]

HI LUIS,
Do you realize what you have done showing these photos from when you first started shooting as a young boy?????
It's most important in your history as a photojournalist?
LOOK AT THE IMAGES OF YOUR YOUTH AND COMPARE THEM WITH YOUR PHOTOS OF TODAY? AMAZING, LOOK carefully! THEY ARE "DROP DEAD" SIMILAR!!!
YOU WERE "BORN WITH THE VISUAL INSTINCT" TO SEE AS YOU DO! The pictures of your youth before you really knew anything about photography and you were shooting most interesting images as a young boy without any formal training???AMAZING!;-) BY FEELING THE IMAGE! "CLICK!"
The rest of us have had to learn over the years what good, bad & ugly photography is all about? Where "YOU?" IT'S A NATURAL CALLING!
Any doubts? Just compare the pictures of your youth and today and you can see the similar things in both!
Good on you my friend forever!!!!!!!
cheers,
Dr. ted grant O.C.
