Yes Eric, Aperture was good. If we want to look back and mourn the excellent periodicals that have disappeared, Camera magazine from Luzern Switzerland (not the recent "rebirth" from Paris) was probably the cream of the crop. And then from Germany there was Grossbild Tecknik for medium and large format photography. The content and print quality of these magazines were superb - of lasting value, but alas no more and not so easy to find many series. There are several very good periodicals published in Europe that we see here periodically and are available on-line, for example the British Journal of Photography. For those with a primary interest in Black and White there is the Black and White Photography Magazine, also from the UK. There are a number of good magazines published in other European countries as well, in their own languages.
