Nice. Loads fast, and several photos seemed to grab me- mainly the ones taken in Thailand. The composition is better and I would probably guess that they were taken later than the others. They lead the eye better and have better balance, though the unusual shot of Le Tour D'Eiffel was very different and nice. It is hard to take a new view of such a famous landmark! Believe me, doing photofinishing I had thought I had seen all the ways to shoot it, but this one was unusual, and effective. ( the sour grapes crowd may be jealous they can't get to such interesting places! I'm merely green with envy! :o)~ ) Dan - -----Original Message----- From: Francesco <fls@san.rr.com> To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Date: Monday, March 01, 1999 6:20 PM Subject: [Leica] website comments >I posted a note a few days ago that my fiancee Yvonne, an amateur >photographer had posted a few pages of images on her new site >http://www.photorealm.com. > >So far, we have only received 3 comment emails, and one email from >a LUGger that said "maybe no one wants to look at her photos since she >took them with an N brand camera."
