I agree, but "soul stealing" isn't a zero-sum game, it's like an idea: If you have an idea and I have an idea and I give you mine and you give me yours, we *both* now have *two* ideas. When you take someone's photo you do, in a way, take a bit of their soul (how much depends on how good a photographer you are!) - but they don't lose anything in the process. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
