i just ordered a copy to make sure all is working and all is working.

congrats to brett, ray and rover (ralph) for an incredible job, lots of hard work and a fabulous team effort in getting this book from idea to paper.

our book number one, 'rangefinder photography - a passion', is still available and is #86 on the top 100 list.

let me jump in here and say that joe, ray and rover did an amazing job organizing this and keeping it on track.. there's no way I could have put this book together in such a short time without their help.. it was a top-notch team effort all around

I have to respectfully disagree, joe. Aside from the wonderful dedication, you have been a major civilisong influence around here and this knid of co-operative effort wouldn't work with out some kind of community feeling.
OK, now back to my regularly scheduled gear obsesing...

Thanks to:

• Ralph for steering us and being our leader (although he'll deny it)
• joe for representing the membership, and bringing the poet's touch to the project
• Brett for jumping in, grabbing the bull, and bringing his wonderful talent to the project (he's a joker, but the guy knows his stuff!).
• Gene for helping to kick this off (and getting me involved)

I hope for many more RFF books, and that each of you get a chance to participate, both by supplying content, and taking part creating something as great as this with equally great individuals!

And the #1 book can be had from the same publisher? (sorry, I am new)

I just ordered my copy and I'd like to thank everyone who had a hand in making the book possible. Now I can say I've been "published" in something other than newspapers. 😀

Spelling errors? Did I really spy a spelling mistake in the preview pdf file on lulu.com ?

 

[ducttape]

I'm pumped. Even if I weren't previously aware I'd probably buy it based on the prersentation on Lulu.

Now, I have to go harrass the mailman: where's my copy, where's my book! (forget that I just ordered it 10 minutes ago. Where is it man!)

Are They Full Of Great Pictures??? :d :d :d

 

[JoeFriday]

they're so full of great photos that you have to be careful when you open them that the pictures don't spill all over your lap 😉

 

[SLEDGEHAMMER]

Are The Pictures From Famous Photogfers???

 

[JoeFriday]

the photographers are all members here... the book that was just released includes photos from 97 RFF members.. nearly 200 photos all packed into 1 book

 

[SLEDGEHAMMER]

Who Are The Really Good Phototags Here???? What Names?? Are Therybfamous????

 

[pstevenin]

Bravo and many thanks for involvement. I'll place an order right now.

As a participant, I am a bit afraid of my contribution compared to the other ones, but I am just an amateur which means I like to take photo, there is no statement about the qualities and interest...

And I hope to be in again next time and again and again.....
