Women in Medicine is still in transit via slow boat I think! I promise to read carefully and ask questions from the living photographer as soon as it arrives. Just let us know when the next book is ready!

Seems like that might beat the original book title of "Real Photographers shoot B&W. Sometimes colour!" :-) Hey everybody who purchased a copy of "Doctor's Work." or "Women in Medicine " learned more about photography through the "Photographers " Supplement." than all the boring type of note books of the dead guys in the world! Besides, one can read "Photographers Supplement" then discuss the situation with the still living photographer for live answers! :-) Don't you think that might be an incentive to buy the photographer's book? Or DVD? ted -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Jayanand Govindaraj Sent: Friday, June 20, 2008 6:40 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Edward Weston daybbooks If you want to think about photography, and are interested in nature photography with 35mm, I would suggest Galen Rowell's books, especially "Inner Game of Outdoor Photography", a collection of very readable essays.
