I could have sorted those lists (and their photos) to each photographer without seeing the names. No one is wrong of course. For me what Ted and Tina wrote just has perfect clarity (distilled essence of people photos as I'd like them to be I guess). Different list for rocks and ferns though! I have at least managed to shift much of my technical absorption to the developing and printing stage at least. Anyone else spend New Year's Eve printing instead of clicking? So pretty and now all Platinum too. http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/131285862 Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman On 3 January 2011 10:33, Ric Carter <ricc at embarqmail.com> wrote: > Sometimes, I wish my brain worked like you guys'. > > But, it doesn't.
