That misses my point, Tina. I, too, prefer the documentary work. But this 
work will be seen by far more people, will be infinitely more widely 
reproduced, and has the very real potential to influence people's support 
for conservation. Pictures of dark-skinned, dirty, impoverished 
third-worlders? Not so much.
