[Leica] In search of the elusive nuances

It would be a pity to waste time on the characteristics of a specific 
tool in the hands of a creative person. Much better to understand what 
they might be trying to say in their work and I'd almost guarantee it 
won't be their "bokeh".

Edvard Munch is an artist whose work I admire. When I look at it I don't 
care what type of brush he used or how he mixed his paints. I do care 
what he was thinking when he worked. He was trying to communicate with 
me and that is what art means. (my opinion) Whether it's Chopin's 
spirited nature, Beethoven's melancholy or Bach's religious fervor what 
counts is feeling. I'll let the intellectual athletes label it all, my 
preference is plain old feeling.

happy bokehing,

Walt
