Excellent show, good people ... A fine time. Very good to meet you all.

Thanks, Kent, for bringing everyone together!

As always good to see everyone and all the faces I hadn't met before.

Mmmm chicken Tapos to boot.
 
Thanks, there is more on my flickr page. Somehow the bcc code is only showing as a static link...
 
As always, great to see everyone, and what an exhibit! We ended up eating at MOMA Cafe, so missed a proper "see ya later". I am leaving my Canon 28 f2.8 on my 0.58 M6 TTL. Gear aside, I was very moved by this show, in part because I feel we saw the work of a hard working photographer who was a no bs doer. Very inspiring, very moving, and I plan to see the show again on a weekend or two, or in April. OK, here's a question: you can walk home with one image you saw...which one? I cannot get the image of the kids surrounding the sports start out of my mind. Simple picture of joy, but key is that he caught the moment when one kid's glasses are about to be knocked off, and his moment to get the autograph will quickly pass him by.

We missed you at lunch Bob, great place! Glad you enjoyed the show!

If I had to take one home it might be the profile portrait of a woman in a "cat like" pose.
 
What I'll do – since it's so hard to steal even one print from the museum – is take the book home, next time I'm there with a backpack. (@Kent: The 20%-off member sale is April 27.) The printing is flatter than the actual prints, but I think G. W. would like me to leave with all of them, because he loved near-chaotic multiplicity.

Very nice to see everyone on such a special rangefinder occasion – and to meet newcomers to the tribe.

PS, that tiny 28 + .58 finder are such a great pair!

Now we have to learn to twitch our cameras around our faces like Garry in the video, and still avoid camera movement. Can't figure out how!
