Can I draw LUGers attention to two portfolios in the latest Aperture 
magazine (#165).

The first is by Magnum photographer Paolo Pellegrin featuring his work in 
Kosovo. I don't know if he is a Leica user but the images certainly have a 
'Leicaness' about them and one in particular ('Kosovo women mourning the 
death of a man killed by a land mine') a particularly moving and stunning 
use of reportage photography.

The second portfolio is of William Eggleston's work. He is, of course, well 
known and I would be amazed if these images are Leica images, but his use of 
colour is very striking, especially in the muted ranges.

Sorry all of this may be OT but I always like looking at good images 
regardless of the equipment used.
