Totally honest and objective Dave! I have lapses also. I'll be happy to tell you what I think, openly and honestly, and you can tell me. I wish it was this way across the board. I realize there maybe be a small % of opinions I disagree with generally (damn there's ego again). Often I find weeks or months later I agree with those. There's an image I showed months back, grayscale of trees in fog. Bill Robb suggested a different rendering and displayed it. I didn't like his rendering more than mine. In retrospect, I don't like mine either. Try as I did, I determined it was a well seen image, captured poorly, probably impossible to make good. One better not to have shown in the first place. I simply failed all around, no reason to think otherwise. Failure is not bad. Failure to recognize a failure as a failure is the problem.
