Didn't think of it when I sent the note. Two Nikons and no Leicas? Boy are you in trouble now - you Nikon lover you :-> B&W is how I started (the TLR at Solitude for a Formula 1 race ages ago was my 1st ever photo experience). It is also something I never mastered to my satisfaction, sigh. I don't 'see' in B&W so often my tone and exposure is not pleasing to me at all. But I find color easy and since folks pay for my pictures they must agree :-> I gave up B&W for many years as a lost cause but his work re-lit the desire and am trying to prove that perhaps an old dog can learn a new trick or two.
