Advertisement Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 Hi andybarton, Take a look here Peter Turnley lecture in Washington DC, 2nd May 2012. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
glenerrolrd Posted April 30, 2012 Share #2 Â Posted April 30, 2012 I have seen Peter s presentation and its well worth a short trip if you are on the east coast . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ho_co Posted April 30, 2012 Share #3 Â Posted April 30, 2012 Just saw him in Austin TX a week or so ago. Well worth the visit. Good photographer and Leica user. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jager Posted May 1, 2012 Share #4 Â Posted May 1, 2012 Aye, I'll be there. Am very much looking forward to Peter's lecture. Not to mention seeing the brand new Leica store! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbuckley Posted May 3, 2012 Share #5 Â Posted May 3, 2012 Peter's talk was really fantastic. He told us about his career path, which was interesting in itself. And he showed us images from various stages in his career. But his core message was that photographers should pay as much attention to their heart as their eye. I found him engaging, intelligent, and he is a really wonderful photographer. Â The Leica Store in DC is fantastic, and they seem to have ambitions to be serve as a photography hub/community, not simply as a place to sell product. This is so welcome in DC, which has a strong photography community but really no great photography stores in the city. Â As a symbol of Leica's resurgence, this was a fantastic move by the company. (And selfishly, for once Washington was on the leading edge of something, not simply a backwater masked by The Most Powerful City In The World advertising hype.)

Jeff S Posted May 3, 2012 Share #6 Â Posted May 3, 2012 I agree, selfishly, regarding the Leica Store. Saves me 30 minutes commute to the nearest Leica dealer (with any decent stock), and it won't be hard to beat that dealer's often less than satisfactory customer experience.
