Winter Challenge Next Weekend!
Hopefully you're setting time aside to shoot on Dec 15th or 16th, we're inside of a week to go! Call some friends and make it a fun day of photography in your world.
New Submission Deadline: January 10th
Given the fact that the Winter Challenge is taking place during the Holiday Season an astute participant pointed out that some film shooters might be hard pressed to develop and scan their entries in time for submission. Wanting to make this as fun and inclusive as possible we thoroughly agree and, as such, we have lengthened our window for submission and also modified the voting dates accordingly.
Have a look at the new Key Dates Schedule (Updated with Longer Submission Window):

- A used Leica IIIC camera with a Leica Summitar Lens.
- A used Agfa Isolette camera and roll of TMAX 120 Film.

That's a pretty awesome collection to compete for! Due to the International nature of the competition and the cost of overseas shipping it is possible the winners may have to pick up some of the shipping charge. Still a great deal!

Another superb forum is the Leica User Forum (or L Camera Forum). Not only is there all the info that any Leica fan would ever want or need but there also is an amazing collection of photography submitted by members. Highly recommended!
