Chuck - go to Photo 32 and listen to RealAudio - "The Decisive Moment" - he
likes to work light - he shot with a Leica, mostly with a 35 lens.  His
philosophy is one camera, one lens, one film.  He says he shot with Velvia
rated at 50, even the night shots, using a small flash when necessary -
great stuff - Hugh Thompson
