Hi Godfrey my comments are below:
>>I both don't understand your point of view and couldn't agree with it >>if I did. I understand that you disagree anyway, even if you do not understand my point, strange ;-) >> One judges a photograph on the basis of what >>the photographer presents as the finished work, not what might have >>been recorded by the camera. I don't care what "one" does Godfrey I have my own will. >>A negative is not a photograph. Whether one makes a photograph out of >>a negative without cropping or with cropping has no bearing on >>whether the photograph presented is good or bad. How many >>photographic shows have you been to where the photographer puts a >>negative up for judging? I did not qualify your PAW here but questioned whether *I* could judge the quality of the framing or composition when I only see a cropped photo, somebody called that "good photographers eye" lately in a compliment to Juan. >> >>To say that you "could not judge the quality of the framing or >>composition on a cropped photo" is ludicrous. >> >>Godfrey Please Remember that I said *I can not*, I see now that *you* can and that's fine for me... greetings Markus
