    Ming Thein

    Hiya all,

    For those of you who remeber Ming on the forum, way back when, I jsut spotted this on the Leica blog:

    Clicky to have a squint.

    I haven't seen him on here for absolutely ages so it's nice to see he's still up to his old tricks of taking the most stunning photographs!

    Now there was a bloke, who could take a pic of a watch!!

    Ming is the undisputed watch pic king!

    Leica pics are excellent too!

    I recall a thread a while ago about who was the best watch photographer, Ming got my vote by quite a margin.

    I've seen a lot of nice watch photography, but Ming's is up there with the very, very best. Absolute perfection.

    Boo! My ears are burning. I don't hang out anywhere these days, just not enough time! Glad to see you're all well. I still email John once in a while, shoot some watches (admittedly its a lot harder with a Leica because they're just not designed for macro). I've got some articles on fratellowatches but the lion's share of the photos are on Flickr - http://www.flickr.com/mingthein

    Happy new year (belated 1 Jan and current Chinese dragon) everybody!

    Ming, you are sadly missed. You were the best, most informative & most informed and cleverest 'poster' ever.

    Thank you but I'm not sure that's necessarily true :)

    Every time I try to post more often other things get in the way...so I shall say 'see you all ocasionally'.
