Why does everyone hate this truck picture? 'Cuz its a cliché? The photos isn't all that bad or anything, and I am sure family and friends will enjoy it, but honestly, hasn't the rusty-truck-in-the-field shot already been done to death? A bit of a waste of an extinct emulsion IMO (a new expression... it isn't APX25 worthy! :-). I do think Rabiner's comments were unusually and inappropriately harsh. I never did understand exactly what the hell "Leica Photography" was anyway. Leica makes rangefinders, SLRs, point & shoots, digitals, squirrelly little no focus repros... with the exception of medium and large format, Leica photography is what ever you want it to be IMO. Lighten up, Mark! BK - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
