[Lluis Ripoll]

Congratulations Brian!!! the book is fantastic, maybe because it was a while without it but I find it with a superb quality, thank you to you and congratulations and thank you to all the friends that have contruted with those wonderful images!!! A special memory for my beloved friend Steve and my thanks to Philippe. Thank you very much to Nathan too for mentioning me with those kind words! I think I can precise the date of our first personal encounter, it was in Perpignan Visa pour la Image in 2005, where we meet too Steve Unswoorth and Tarek Charara, before this we was already in contact through the list after 2002 or 2003….

I’m really proud to belong to this community !

Cheers
Lluis

> I've set it up so that you can see thumbnail previews of every page in the book. Also you can buy a copy. Don't be shocked at the price. High-end photo books are expensive to produce. I figure that a book price that is about 2% of the price of my Leica Q2 is probably OK.

> I've CC'd my wife (Victoria) on this email to let her know I'm going to emerge from the editing cave and be sociable again. There's a picture of her on page 35, along with one of our daughters and both of our granddaughters. Probably not great art, but hey, it's a great picture of 4 of my people.
