Subject: [Leica] Which Bag?

These are the 1.000.000$ questions, I don't have the answer, I can only say
my opinion:

Why shoot?: This is a very personal question (for everyone), on my case my
answer would be to realize some of myself doing through the photography a
intend of an artistic communication.
Why shoot what we shoot?: Also is (for me) a personal question, in different
moments we have different interests, family, landscapes, street... For me
the difference with photography and other arts is that this one is the only
one created to capture "the decisive moment", a landscape could be designed,
painted... but not a photography on the decisive moment.
What advantages Leica?: Have on the hands a perfect and mythical instrument
What differentiates good photography...?: As HCB said, sometimes a few
millimetres
What differentiates SP...?: Please see last answer, this question is for me
a little playing with the words

Saludos desde Barcelona
Luis

It's a bit like the subject of Summicron 50s....Oh well, for that matter
it's a bit like any question anyone could ask about Leicas and their
accessories. The only original questions one could ask on the list would
probably have to do with photography itself - why shoot? why shoot what
we shoot? what's photography all about? what advantages does using
Leicas offer? can one do equally good work with other camera brands?
What makes a good photograph good? What differentiates good photography
from mediocre photography? What differentiates 'street photography' from
photography of people in the street? Etc. etc. etc. :-)

If one does a key word search of the LUG archives for "which bag," 4,320
messages are retrieved.  Could there possibly be anything left to say on
the topic?
