Given this absolute disgusting award for the Barnack Award. Basically a LEICA AWARD! I wonder what he might think about the re-actions of Leica Users about the Planet? I wouldn't have a problem explaining to him just how disgusted we folks are. Not because we didn't win. But how disgusted with the "MENTAL MIDGET LEICA JUDGES" who made the selection and presentation! A quiet Saturday afternoon passing thought? cheers, Dr. ted TEDGRANTPHOTO.COM -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Peter Dzwig Sent: July-11-15 4:28 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Barnack Award Absolute rubbish. Not worthy of Barnack's name. They have clearly lost their way and should think carefully before awarding another prize. May be give it a break for a few years. I don't see any relationship between this work and the spirit of Leica, let alone of Barnack. If you are going to award a prize in Barnack's name then it should show some linkage to the spirit of his work and his camera. A lot of wet people on bikes wearing plastic macs just doesn't cut it.
