[Leica] The bell-shaped lamp

[Peter Dzwig]

Thanks, Don.

I don't know about "intellectual", but the question of cropping went 
through many iterations. I did what you suggested, but in the end I went 
with this version.

As you can see it's "...Larry_King_3..."; there were two others which 
came close to being posted (there were actually many more that I didn't 
like).

Thanks for taking the time

Peter
