Carl, at the time of submitting the image would be fine.

Use of the Dark Side logo may constitute a breach of copyright; I'll ask Nick Mason when I see him on Thursday.

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

Is it Pink Floyd, Pink Floyd (1984) Ltd, Roger Waters, Hipgnosis or someone else who has the copyright?

 

Seems pretty innocuous to me and something that I am sure nick mason couldn't give a monkey's about.

 

A smilie might not got amiss, here, Pete

Just managed to switch my flight of passage through Paris. I will now arr, the day before the One Challenge and stop over for a couple of days.

 

Cheers,

Erl

Does this mean that you're going to join us?

 

If so, that's excellent news!

[erl]

Why else would I wipe off one day in Morocco but to join you guys and gals?

 

You betcha I'll be there! Looking forward to it.

 

Cheers,

Erl

 

P.S. I guess this means you will find out who I really am. Scary!

You'll be the one with the corks round his hat, I assume.

Don't joke! It's hard work getting all those corks!

[wbesz]

Erl, how can you possibly carry all the corks (those you have accumulated)?

 

(at least it's free drinks on the flight!)

[erl]

William,

 

I donate regularly to a cork re-cycling charity, just keeping enough for my hat.

 

Cheers,

Erl

Are proxies allowed?

I would love to partcipate in this but several weeks ago booked a shoot in San Francisco for that weekend. If they are held around the same time each year, I'd like to know so I can plan to keep the period available next year.

Ok, I've been thinking about the rules and am going to make a minor change.

 

When the photographs are posted for review I will not include any details of camera/lens etc. I'll do that at the end when the photographers are named. By doing so the photographs will be only be able to be judged on their own merits without the name of the camera/lens providing any possible influence.

 

Perhaps we should have a secondary competition where people guess the lens :-)

[andybarton]

Or whether it's digital or not

 

That's an excellent idea. Obviously, eligibility to enter (checking that Leica equipment is being used) is done at "registration", but removing the camera and lens info from the entries will make it much more even.

 

After all, if there's only one person using a IIIf, an R8 or a 5D, then it's obvious to those who were there, who took it.

 

I second the proposal.

 

What is it? 9 weeks now? Must have just missed Kim Bassinger...

[stunsworth]

Or whether it's digital or not

 

Yes, just a sequence of images for people to choose their favourites from.

[abrewer]

Still pondering how I might join the group...

 

 

Any suggestions on cheap travel alternatives to the site?

 

Thanks.

To Paris, you mean?

[pascal_meheut]

I'm not sure there is a cheap way to go from Indianapolis to Paris but I usually travel the other way around to what do I know ?

 

BTW, can we see the pictures of the previous events somewhere ?

Hallo,

Look here: Interesting Leica gear

[andybarton]

They were on the old forum, of course, but that's inaccessible at the moment.

 

I could probably post my previous efforts, but that seems a little pointless now. It would be interesting to see them all in context again though.
