[Leica] IMG: Friday Flowers

[rgacpa at yahoo.com (Bob Adler)]

Hi Bruce,
Thanks for looking. It was an amazing display of poppies, mixed with all 
sorts of other stuff I know not what.

Jim's a great resource for location and technique; film, digital, LF, MF 
etc. He's lived here his entire life and knows the area and where the images 
are. He's also put on workshops for Leica and Hasselblad in the past. His 
long resume is posted at his sight. And to boot he's a nice guy. I learned a 
lot yesterday (at least I felt so) from his guidance, both location and 
photographically.

Again, thanks for looking,
Bob

A day to dream of. You sure carry some lenses with you!

Portal's poppy pastureland (they are poppies, aren't they?) sure evokes an 
inspiring blend of orange/red and delicate greens.

Can just imagine your joy at participating in this workshop. What is Jim 
Brick teaching? Wild flowers or photographing them?

Bruce.
