Subject: [Leica] Yearbook - Why did you choose those photos?

Choices were hard, but reasons were simple.

-- Unpublished

-- Not on anyone's walls (though some may eventually make it there)

A fair amount of what I shoot is for a specific purpose or person.
Those I disqualify.

Then there are the photos I shoot while walking around town, traveling
or playing; stuff I like but with no specific intent or use in mind.
Many sit around for a long time. Even more sit around for an even
longer time.

Guess my criteria is self indulgent: photographs I like that for
whatever reason I believe deserve a bit of air and also that I think
others might enjoy. This is pretty much the criteria I use for my LUG
album postings, though there I'm looking for critiques and guidance;
problem solving, you might say. Fresh eyes and different points of
views -- on- and off-list -- always help and are quite appreciated.

Thank you.
