Although i dont make a habit to find and watch the show my self,i do tune in once and a
while for a
few minuites and have noticed the same thing Pat.
I see quite a few use the 6x7. :-)
I saw a show ,maybe the first or second annual Naked in the House and was fasinated by
the
idea.
A local Rogers cable potography show,show also does this once a year or so with local
pros
and i
have watch their interviews/pictures, after.
Some nice work and its interesting how several people can see things so differently.
