[Leica] IMG: Riga

[Cedric Agie]

RIGA birthplace of the renowned MINOX generation and its wonderful lenses.
The inventor and his factory and engineers fled to Germany and are
somewhere in Wetzlar and in excellent terms with the Leica factory who is
also back in Wetzlar.
Fled from who? History is an eternal repetition. If you don't look at the
past of History you are bound to a repetition in the future.

Nice WE
