Hi Phong:
1. Thanks for the background on the Boston LUG Session and future plans.
2. I'm also interested in B&W Photography. Want to take a course and build a
Darkroom. At the Burlington Mall this afternoon, while attending to my cell
phone problems with Bell Atlantic, I came across a photographer shooting with
an M6 and assorted lenses... photographying his young son with his wife
patiently observing. I promised myself if he was still there on my return
from my Bell Atlantic business I would stop and speak to him. He was...and I
did...and we spoke at some length about Leica Photography and B&W processing.
3. My new-found Leica acquantance soups his Tri X Film (nothing but Tri X
Film for him!) in Xtol (nothing but Xtol for him!), and he swears by this
combination. I'm just learning the ropes and so I listened hard...looking
forward to the day of testing his experience against mine.
4. RE LUG members: I find myself wondering whether others on the LUG share
this passion for Tri X Film and Xtol developer?????
5. A Point of Information on a Local Photographic Society: I am aware that
on the First Sunday of every month The Photographic Historical Society of New
England (PHSNE) meets at a High School in Waltham, just off Route 95 (128):
hope to attend the next meeting.
6. PHSNE plans trip to China soon.
(Also in the spirit of neighborly sharing...Action is near
Lunenburg...PHSNE has a phone/fax listing: 617 928 0366. There homepage
address is http:/www.ultranet.com/-copley/phsne. PHSNE publishes a journal
and their email address is: journal@imagepr.com).
Best of Light,
Leon
