Dear Leica friends,
Today we would like to inform you about:
30 Years of
the Leica Gallery: Anniversary year 2006 again sees interesting
exhibition program
The Leica Gallery is celebrating its 30th anniversary in the year 2006.
To commemorate this occasion, the exhibition program is again spanning
the whole range of 35mm photography from fine-art to documentary with a
total of twelve international photo exhibitions, one for every month of
the year. The opening of the Leica Gallery in the year 1976 marked the
beginning of Leica culture projects. This was followed in 1979 by the
first Leica Oskar Barnack competition and numerous other activities to
do with photographic culture. The Leica gallery has been accommodated
in the entrance hall of Leica Camera AG's factory in
Oskar-Barnack-Strasse since 1988 and gives world-famous as well as
young aspiring Leica photographers the chance to present outstanding
achievements in an exhibition.

Closing date
for Leica photo competitions: 31st January 2006
Leica Camera AG, Solms, will be holding its international photo
competitions for professional photographers again this year. The
closing date for both the Leica Oskar Barnack Award and the Leica
European Publishers Award for Photography is 31st January 2006. The
entry forms for both competitions can be downloaded as a pdf file at www.leica-camera.com.
The Leica Oskar Barnack Award has been sponsored as part of Leica
Cultural Projects since 1979, the year of the 100th anniversary of
Oskar Barnack’s birthday. The prize is awarded in cooperation with the
Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie in Arles, France. The
international jury gives the award to the photographer whose sure
powers of observation most vividly express man's relationship to his
environment in a photo series consisting of up to 12 pictures.
Previously known under the name “European Publishers Award for
Photography 2005“, the competition has been one of the culture projects
of Leica Camera AG ever since it was initiated in 1994. This year,
'Leica' is being added to the name for the first time to show the
involvement of the Solms company in one of the most important photo
book awards in Europe. To be eligible for entry, photo projects must be
completed, unpublished and in the form of a book. The winner's project
will be published by the participating publishers in their particular
country and language.

Amazing
South East Asian Adventures
Out of
this World Photographic
Opportunities
The best way to travel is in small groups of friends who share a
similar passion.
I can take individuals or couples on an adveture of a lifetime but will
charge the same as for a group of five or six. The largest group I can
accomodate is ten persons but it will mean that we can not move around
as freely as a smaller group. Asia not only offers great photo
opportunities but also incredible food
You tell me what you want, I
can provide super luxury "lifestyle of the rich and famous" or down to
earth get close to the real people type expeditions. I have spent time
with revolutionary forces in the jungle and royals in their incredible
palaces. We have military and police escorts available, for celebrities
and
expeditions into areas of conflict. george@dpmac.com
