Laurent,

thanks for the news. I forgot to mention it in my last posting although I read it in last week's edition of the German "Stern" magazine. But they only told that he left "Magnum". They didn't tell why - do you know it?

Also, the story about his own agency and lab is new to me. Is his own agency also organized in the "Magnum" way, as a cooperation of the members who are also the owners of it? And which photographers do work there?

Questions, questions, questions,... :)

Thanks in advance for the answers.

Bye, Edi.
