As I don't. And want to. And since I don't know what's going on I loose interest. Not good. With no caption its frustrating. Should a good photo need a caption? Maybe that's ok sometimes I don't know. But a good sign usually if they don't. Your other shots though were more universal and less a telling of a specific timely event. And I like them better. They don't need captions. Captions as a matter of fact in my opinion would be very detrimental as the shots are so universal. love this shot your did of course which is stupendous http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/luisrq/Barcelona/070103-26orw.jpg.html I like this shot you did http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/luisrq/Barcelona/070104-32w.jpg.html Mark Rabiner 8A/109s New York, NY markrabiner.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
