    Marc, I would have been proud to have taken this picture; the balance of flash is perfect; would like to hear more about how you do this with the sp-20. I'm sure the couple loved this photo. Black and white is perfect; I get tired of color in everything; I guess it's because when I started in 1944 everything was black and white except for a little kodachrome and some anscochrome. I think your shots are really sharp (focus that is)

    Coming to/or Back to Leica from Digital?

    Hi Mark,

    I'll drink to your move back to film; I think the digital is the modern day Polaroid to check your picture before you take it on film.

    I'm 76 years old and remember my schooling from Fred Archer in 1948. Probably none of you have ever heard of Fred Archer (he did work with Ansel Adams to develop the zone system. He started his school in 1947 when Art Center had a two year waiting period. His program was just like Art Center only he did'nt have nude photography. He said "taking a nude is like spanking an 18 year old girl; it's fun but it doesn't do any good. Anyway .... cheers

    Hi John, congratulations to you both for son George; waiting to see the pictures; he'll have plenty taken in his time I'm sure. About the IIIg. I have a IIIf and a IIIg as well as a M2 and a M6. Of all of these, the M2 is my favorite. Why do you consider it a spare? Not nosy just curious. Best regards, Lowell
