Sure the butt end was the point of the photograph. > Sonny replied--- I spent only fifteen years in TV news, and when I was doing it, it was never common in the South for photographers to tote ladders, maybe that's why I didn't get it, also, not seeing a camera on the "photographer" was another reason I didn't get it. If the butt end was the point, maybe Luis might just have come out and said that. I think, ( I really do, sometimes,) that the picture would have been far stronger if Luis had made like a planet and orbited clockwise to about a 7 o'clock position around the afore-mentioned body. Theni f he backed off, and panned left, he then would have shown the woman as photographer, her camera, her subject, as well as the object of your previously acclaimed affection. See how simple that was? -- Regards, Sonny http://sonc.com/look/ Natchitoches, Louisiana USA > > > -- Regards, Sonny http://sonc.com/look/ Natchitoches, Louisiana USA
