F**k It. I'm now looking at this purely as definitions for two words of the English language :-)
The meaning has nothing to do with equipment, subject or location Snap Shot. Lets break it down! Snap (Done Suddenly) [adjective, before noun] "done suddenly without allowing time for careful thought or preparation" Shot (Photography) [noun] "a photograph:" Now if some people can "suddenly without allowing time for careful thought or preparation" set up there 8x10 view camera & tripod then that's a snap shot<g>. My head hurts, I'm going to bed. Dave On 7/24/05, Bob W <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > That is precisely the question - what is a snapshot?
