I have to ditto....

.. Christopher, Massimo, Thomas, Michael and Gregg. I just would like to add- and I hope you don't mind, Armen- that when I first saw it in thumbnail I thought it was one of Toshiyasu Inumaru's works. I am afraid we have lost him -momentarily, I hope - on these pages after - I presume-sterile debates. Very nice one, Armen.

Yes, Baltasar, I've been thinking about it

before posting this photo. Let it be a letter to Toshiyasu (written not in japanese though :) ) with the invitation to return to us. Regards. Armen.

Thanks for your letters, Armen and Baltasar.

As I stated on my current image of http://contaxg.com/document.php?id=24169 'which may be so old', I believe this site is for sharing the emotion in one photograph, by using CONTAX G and FILM, with passion of Carl Zeiss. However, I had been given derogatory comments and low ratings from some person, serially. At least, I felt its behavior regards me as a target. So, to go back to one personal photographer, I am away from this site for a while, except for viewing. But, I continue with taking photographs by my G systems. I appreciate your considerations. Thanks a lot.

Armen, congratulations on great

shot. It has very delicate, almost Asian feel. I hope you had a print made for your wall at home!

Steve Garza     04-Apr-2006 at 11:18

Not yet,Steve.I want to take an enlarger

but its too big for my flat (the good one) Print from scan - no way! So I'm still thinking :) Thanks for your warm words!

Congratulations, Armen

Well deserved to be in the HoF. I loved the picture from the very first second I saw it..... Regards from northern Spain.

Baltasar Alvarez Quintana     02-Jul-2006 at 13:11

Thank you,friends!

I'm happy to be with you at this site!

Armen Amirkhanian     03-Jul-2006 at 02:09

Armen, congratulations.

I think that it is a natural result for you with a great knowledge of the photograph. In this letter, I feel that there is a cross-border philosophy.
