[Leica] Eclipse tips

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

I admit I find the advice "Don't take photographs" in this context one of 
the more annoying I?ve ever come upon.
There?s a name for his kind of pain in the ass whatever it is and I?ll have 
to dredge it up.

It would work better before the smart phone age.
You?re not going to pry that picture taking smart phone out of their cold 
dead hands and in this case, I?m glad.
They?re  (everybody) going to photograph anything and everything and send it 
instantly to their friends. I can think of  a worse turn of events.
Photographers and photography is no longer marginalized as it was getting to 
be right before smartphones hit. We were the bad guys.
Now we?re always doing what everyone else is always doing.
