Why is RFF such a success ?

Just had my coffee. For many, photography is an "alone time" craft. Here, we have community, albeit virtual community. Occasionally, some of us actually meet.

So true Mike ... in fact I have just been contacted in the last day or so by a fellow RFFer who lives here in Brisbane and has an M8 ... he's keen for us to get together one weekend, maybe a market or similar and do some 'street M8.' :)
 
Dee, the open-heartedness of your post is striking, and IMO a clear indication of the reasons of the success of RFF.

Before RFF I wandered around on P.nut. That did not help my enjoyment of photography. Then, somehow, I ran into a little newsletter called CVUG (through IIRC some other newsletter on FSU cameras). Boy, was I interested in them odd rangefinder thingies! You can't read the CVUG newsletter and NOT get in touch with Mr Gandy, and there was also mentionings of a forum. I checked it out, checked in and never left. I don't know why. :D
 
Dee, we all have told the members of RFF things that maybe we would not tell our friends. Besides the RFF part, it is a good place to unwind. When I was in professional school I took a course on 'how to accept other peoples feelings,' you didn't have to agree just accept. At the time, I thought it was a waste of time. But later I realized it was the best course I ever took.

If you can post some photos, I know we would love them.

You are all wrong. It's the black background! ;)

Chris, you maybe joking, but strangely, I find the dark background very soothing and less glaring in my eyes. It also provides an automatic framing to pictures (especially black and whites) that made them pops out.

Dee, we love you too!! :D

Group hug, y'all!
