WITHOUT QUESTION THEY ARE QUITE INCREDIBLE, ALL OF THEM IN FANTASTIC ARRAY! I'M ASSUMING THEY ARE A COLLECTION OVER LONG-TIME WALK ABOUTS? THIS WAS MUCH OF THE TYPE OF MATERIAL I WAS ASSIGNED TO SHOOT DURING MY EARLY DAYS IN OTTAW & ACROSS CANADA. ALL THAT MATERIAL TODAY IS HELD IN THE National Archives of CANADA THAT FORMS A COLLECTION WELL 0VER SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND PHOTOS ALL ACROSS CANADA COAST to COAST.:-) MUCH OF THE ASSIGNMENTS WERE ASSIGNED BY THE NATIONAL FILM BOARD OF CANADA. DOCUMENTING,SOMETIMES A MONTH OF SHOOTING ON THE STREETS OF VANCOUVER, MONTREAL,TORONTO OR WHEREVER? AWWWWWWWWWWW!! ;-) THOSE WERE THE DAYS OF 35MM B&W FILM BY THE HUNDREDS OF ROLLS OF FILM!! :-) AND I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT ACCEPT ON THE SNOW AND RAIN DAYS. BEST PART? I DIDN'T HAVE TO SOUP THE FILM, NOR MAKE CONTACT SHEETS FOR EVERY ROLL OF FILM! THE DARKROOM CREW LOOKED AFTER ALL THAT. CHEERS, Dr. ted grant O.C. -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Gerry Walden via LUG Sent: October-08-19 7:03 AM To: Leica Users Group Cc: Gerry Walden; Lawrence Olsen Subject: [Leica] IMG: Family get-together Back to my favourite coffee shop this morning: https://gerrywalden.smugmug.com/B-W-Street-Images/i-tj6gZhq/A <https://gerrywalden.smugmug.com/B-W-Street-Images/i-tj6gZhq/A> Leica M240 + 35mm Summarit f2.5 @ 1600 iso.
