Douglas I think there should be bonus points for using all Leica!
Like a degree of difficulty factor for Olympic diving or something ;-)

Cheers

Congratulations to the winners - a lot of competition in the competition 
this month.
Personally, I like the idea of "Order of Merit". (Even though one of 
mine came second to last).
Already looking forward to "repetitions" (not meaning second to last 
again :-) )
Cheers
Douglas

BTW, Interesting to see how many Canons, Olympussies , Nikons,  Sonys, 
Fujis etc. are used for taking Leica pictures ;-)
