Thanks George, very informative info.
It's true, I have been known to use a lot of 'unnecessary' space: I  
once did a blank full newspaper page ad for Mercedes and won a prize  
for it. :-P
The reason why I do it in my photographs is to give a kind of 'lead'  
into the image. But I see what you mean and will certainly consider  
some of it.

Kind regards,
Philippe
