Thanks Cleavis, I'll look into it. I've read a few things by him, very dense. I have yet to see a monograph that really does him 
justice, though I need to look harder. Anyone interested in seeing amazing silver prints, Sommer was amazing. What he 
offerred as a whole as an artist is way too big a subjcet for me, but I'm jealous of anyone who got to meet him. An 
aquintance in my old building was his assistant some years ago.
