[Leica] Photo contest rules

[lrzeitlin at aol.com (lrzeitlin at aol.com)]

 I have no objection to banning archival photos from any current assignment 
contest since those are now the rules. I've treated my personal cache of 
85,000 pictures taken over the last 60 years as a magazine editor would 
treat a stock agency. Somewheres in my files I can find a photo for every 
contingency. As an adventitious photographer I took pictures of almost 
everything that pleased me.


But the requirement to take new pictures every week to satisfy an assignment 
is a hardship on some of us mossbacks. I'm afraid that I can't treat any 
contest as a learning experience. It is not likely that I can change my 
photographic style on a weekly basis. It may be fun to try but I'm afraid 
that, at least in my case, what you see is what you get. Mostly 
unimaginative snapshots.
