Y'all made my day. :D Second, though I've never read the book nor seen the movie (I've heard of it), I'm a huge fan of 80's music. So who could forget Warm Leatherette by the normal? http://www.postalnauts.com/newwave/99-03-20/normal.html Anyway, car crashes don't particularly turn me on. They just sorta happen and I'm standin there with a camera. For what it's worth, a well-known lugger previewed these shots and suggested an improvement might be to photograph my wife climbing out of the windshield with a six-pack in her hands. See now that's perverse but amusing, and an art of a completely different sort. :D Regards, Colin http://www.availabledark.com > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us] On Behalf Of > Don Lawrence > Sent: Tuesday, February 19, 2002 4:49 PM > To: leica-users-digest@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Subject: [Leica] Crash photo > > > > No, Is it worth it?
