My comments about the photos still stand, and I must stress that I have no problem with what he wrote, and understand and share the frustration that lead him to write it, but I should not have responded to you as I did.

D. -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Didier Ludwig Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 12:16 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Iraq occupation protest - Chicago 3/19/05 Dave The pictures have too much point'n'shoot appeal for me. Just join the crowd, click, and that's it. You wrote the ratio of demonstrants vs. policemen was 200 vs. 2000 - why did you not document this photographically interesting contrast? My impression was that you did not only want to show your pictures, but that you were looking for an opportunity to kick your personal concept of the enemy in the ass. The LUG's indeed the wrong place for that. That's why I agree with Mark, that your post was rather backhanded.
