Paging Bill Palmer: Leica One Challenge

[abrewer]

Bill, there seems to be interest in the Leica One Challenge from members who previously were unaware if the event. It is only proper that you should make the introductions, so to speak, as the originator of the idea.

Now that you've got your profile, would you care to share a few of the essentials with the world?



Thanks.

Allan

There is a 'Bill Palmer' on this forum as well?
Fascinating.
Will make a lot of new Bills i'm afraid.
But my little emoticons won't be free any more.
They look like in prison.
Oh well...

Hello stranger...

Try putting your emoticon into your Signature (might work...), otherwise you could be an imposter.

I'm here! I'm here! Give me a day or so - this is a busy weekend. I'll put up the details tomorrow. No reason why our little shindig should not migrate with us.

Regards,

Bill

Just a quick note to say that the proposed time and location for this year's challenge is Saturday the 7th of October in Paris. I'll let Bill fill post the 'rules' as it may be easier for him to copy and paste them than for me to write them from scratch :-)

I was going to post a summary of the location details in the middle of next month. Currently I'm thinking of us meeting at the Frog and Rosbif pub just north of Chatelet This has a large open plan room, so it shouldn't be too difficult for us all to group together.

lct,
Nice to see a familiar icon amongst all the new icons.

I feel a bit lost having been here only 15 minutes or so.

Hi Andy,

With the help of Andreas and your encouragement I have made it.

Many thanks,

Justin

Well, I was about to e-mail you after I overcame my troubles.

It would be a loss not to have you in the forum.

What great news to see you here Justin! And Thorsten, and LCT!

Now we need to pull Chris and Rob and Erl out of the ether and haul them aboard!!!

Thanks.

The opening of the Forum and the period chosen will most certainly ensure a larger attendance. I am looking forward to it.
Just bought an Elmar 3.5 / 50 last night. Makes carrying the camera everyday a pleasure. I know it's not up to today's standard, but it's fun to use, it looks in good condition. We'll see when the first prints are dry...
Best regards to everyone.

You forgot the IMG code mate.

I'm definitely intending to be there!

Count me in too.

Having logged in, and managed to post a reply, and create an Avatar, I'm now going for a lie down.

Me too, plane tickets booked already. This topic should reappear in the "Forum member metings" category I guess - now that we also have one.
