Since no  one commented on a photo that I thought might provoke some
discussion, let  me try  again:

-  Who the hell does Peter think he is?  Diane Arbus?  Kyle  Cassidy?

- Did he get permission to take this picture from the subject,  the Zoo
Director, the Mayor, the Police Commissioner, the Department of  Homeland
Security, and the Committee for the Correct Treatment of Human  Subjects
by Exploitive Wannabe Concerned Photographers?

- What's he  doing at the zoo, anyway?  Man, that's *so* bourgeois.

- This  photo would have been *so* much better if taken with a black
paint  Flommolux instead of a chrome DR Summicron mismatched to a black
chrome  M6TTL.

- The bokeh ruins the shot.  Sorry.

-  Incredible!  Pulitzer Prize!  Family of Man!  Thirteenth  honorable
mention in Parade Magazine's annual "Gushy Family Values"  snapshot
competition!

- Peter *who*?

Your comments  welcome.

--Peter
