Well done as it's quite immpressive and fascinating in the cross section of subjects each as solidly shot as the other. I thought what was neat, was going along and remembering various photographs and saying to myself... "I remember that one damn it's as good as when I first saw it !:-) The magic displayed here is a learning lesson for all.... It's the Light!!! Regardless what some may think, the most important and first rule of good pictures is seeing how the light works to your advantage, understanding it completely in the visual sense, using it to enhance every picture you take. No it isn't the main item 100%, but very close, as sometimes it's the volume of light for an exposure and the content that make the impact. But above all other aspects, the most important element of any photograph is the value and quality of the light on your subject and the photographers ability to recognize it and make it work to their advantage. It's always Light - eyes - content - action. ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
