[Leica] LHSA membership

[Nathan Wajsman]

Yes, that is absolutely right!!! Thanks for reminding me.

I even have a dedicated gallery to that 2006 Photokina - I drove over for the day from the Netherlands where I lived at the time.

There are several pics of Tom, Tuulikki, you and other LUG/LHSA luminaries:

I also remember another meeting, in Amsterdam, we stayed at a hotel near the Vondelpark, but I do not remember if it was before or after that Photokina.

Cheers,
Nathan

But I noticed that the cameras were mostly fondled rather than used, with just a few of the participants really taking pictures of anything other than other people?s cameras. I believe that the late great Tim Abrahamsson was one of the people I met through the LHSA, but I am not sure.
