I still haven't found the actual photos, only a simulated gallery. But it is
a very praiseworthy achievement. Someone at Solms should be making a
connection about a very worthy publicity opportunity for Leica. Alastair's
superbly coordinated and assembled, all Leica, magnificent FOM2 book has hit
the streets and then their special judges' award in this competition goes to
Alastair's personal work. Shot with the DMR I assume. I note that Dr
Kaufmann was one of the judges for this. Never mind celebrating at Photokina
Howard, some Aussie Leica users are getting together in Melbourne next
month. I expect Alastair to have his two M8's around his neck and his wallet
on the bar ;-)

Cheers
Geoff

Hello Alastair!
It took me three cups of coffee this morning to load and navigate the  
Dior site to find and look at your photos. But they are there, they  
are good and it seems you are the winner!! Congrats! This means you  
are about even with Helen, whom I recall won a cruise with her photos,  
in terms of prize winning. :-) You can buy a round of drinks in  
celebration when we see you at Photokina.
Cheers
Howard.
