Belinkoff once posted that we all talk about photos but never actually
share them and suggested that we post a picture every so often - and
thus was born the PESO, GESO, etc tradition. His comment sparked a
fantastic change to the list, back when. Shel used to also diss on
nature photography, often commentating that the greatest technical
skill
that nature photographers achieved was using a long exposure to blur
moving water. He used to piss me off but I miss him - does anyone knoe
what he is up to these days?
Pretty sure it was our Cory Waters that spawned PESO. Don't know what
happened to Shel, though.
I did a quick Google search. The most reliable info I came up with was
in 2006 just about the time I joined PDML. He was over on Leica forums
tearing them up - posting photos he'd taken with a "Leica lens" and
after they'd all gone Ga-Ga over them revealing it was really a 50mm
Takumar.

Seventh comment down.
Shel could be an evil, evil man.

Don't lose heart! They might want to cut it out, and they'll want to avoid a
lengthily search.
