That's how I met Slobodan himself at Bergamot Station in Santa Monica 
one day about five years ago. He saw me with the IIIf I had at the time 
and said "Whatcha got there?", which led to a conversation and an 
invitation to a gallery show he was having. Nice guy he is.

I 'd like to think that talking with someone about a shared interest, 
in this case a Leica, is really about making a connection with that 
person. Like some of us try to do with our photography.
