Because we are, sometimes we do not see the real impact of the content or overall image as seen by others. And that effects our selection and theirs. The question to ask: If the pictures weren't effective, meaning you did more than an admirable shoot, then the picture wouldn't have made all those front page papers! :) 2/ The above doesn't always apply when we have to deal with visually challenged editors and art directors! :) Most of them don't care if you used a widget exposure camera or Leica. :) ted
