Well,you know, a lot of people hide behind the equipment question and think
that if only they had the "right" or a "really good" camera they could be
great photographers. What is really missing is the confidence in themselves
and their own vision. They don't really believe it's the person that clicks
the shutter (removes the lenscap?)that creates the magic. Too bad they are
afraid to screw up, to allow that old serendipidy to happen.

Not supprizing, they are all hardware geeks. They are in love with the
machines, and not the images they produce. Photographs are only an excuse
to play with their toys. When I run into people that only wan't to talk
about their cameras and lenses my responce has become - show me what you
have done, not what you own. Kurt
