Why not peaceful, quiet portraits without B+G, or maybe even a landscape
without what are intended to be clubbed to death animals?

It is your art, and heaven forbid ( as well as the Constitution) I should
deprive you of that freedom, but really.......I know you can photograph
without shock, but is the shocking stuff what you prefer to shoot?

I am on another list where the subject has been the consittutional right to
shoot up women's skirts ( Ted, take no offense, maybe men's too).  Yes, it
may be your right, but isn't the world filled with enough sneaking around
and B+G or general ugliness?

Give it a break, try for something more..... mainstream.
