I need to quit being lazy and use my own album site. That way I know the owner :) or at least move to lug's album. Jim, Mrs. Hungate is a kindly older woman with steel. She was the wife of a congressman and a federal judge. It is interesting to watch her work a room and to interact with folks--the years of politicking with her husband shows. ------------------------------ Message: 15 Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2008 21:21:48 -0700 From: Ted Grant <tedgrant@shaw.ca> Subject: RE: [Leica] First Decent Leica M8 Shot To: "'Leica Users Group'" <lug@leica-users.org> Message-ID: <0K2W00684ESC4440@l-daemon> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sanjay Nasta showed: Subject: [Leica] First Decent Leica M8 Shot >>Took this shoot when I went up to Atlanta for a weekend. This is my wife's godmother Mrs. Hungate. She's had a tough year but has been resilient. She just returned from a week in the south of France...in January we were worried about her just being able to walk. If anyone's from Missouri you might recognize her...she's slightly famous in those parts http://www.flickr.com/photos/21327599@N00/2602435379/sizes/o Hi Sanjay, A pleasant straight forward portrait type photograph. I particularly like the shallow depth separating her from the background. Well done! Not sure if you knew any photograph you post on flickr can be used by the management of the service in any way or fashion they wish. Seems a strange way to run a site when they can use and sell your photographs any time you use their system for transmitting your photography. ted MicroAssist, Inc. 3420 Executive Center Drive, Suite G100 Austin, TX 78731 http://www.microassist.net Phone: (512) 794-8440 Fax: (512) 794-8742
