So, for this image, I would not loom over this man to capture the books he was reading. A camera position possibly 12-24 inches higher would have given a better vantage point at the cost of possibly intruding into this man's space. So, I took a good image that would not be great. Thank you very much for taking the time to comment. Don don.dory@gmail.com On 8/14/06, Adam Bridge <abridge@gmail.com> wrote: > > I like this image a whole lot, Don.
