Jim,

Your photography makes me very homesick.
This is also among the best of Leica photography,
that is to say photography I would use a Leica M 
for.  The representation also is excellent with a 
clean design and beautiful scans, if indeed they 
are scans. 

Nickpicks ?  I just wish you had backed off just
a tiny tad on 12, 15, and especially 16.  I also might
choose not split the index page into two though.  18 is
not as sharp as the others, but the ambiguity there
works very well for me: the young man seems to be a 
buddhist monk, though his shaved head is partially 
in the shadow.  Of course, the nickpicks do not mean 
I could have done any close, never mind better.

Thanks for posting,

Phong
