Hi Nathan,

Indeed you met Tom A. when Henning Wulff and I were visiting Photokina with 
Tom in 2006 - Tom really knew his way around and knew all the Leica 
technical people.

Somewhere in my pre Lightroom days I have a picture of you and Tom at a 
photo equipment flea market in Cologne. Enjoyed what LHSA offered then but 
have also let my membership lapse. Mark, you were there as well, I recall, 
and we went on some of the excursions together.

Howard

Same here. I was a member once upon a time, and participated in one of the 
events in New York during a visit, and in a trip to Wetzlar when I lived in 
Brussels (easy drive for me). But I noticed that the cameras were mostly 
fondled rather than used, with just a few of the participants really taking 
pictures of anything other than other people?s cameras. I believe that the 
late great Tim Abrahamsson was one of the people I met through the LHSA, but 
I am not sure. 

If you are a collector rather than photographer, then LHSA is for you.

Cheers,
Nathan
