Keith, I think you misunderstood me. When I looked at the picture I *felt* certain emotions. These emotions are something that I don't *usually feel* when look at the photograph. Therefore I decided that I should mention that perhaps Frank did not intend for me to *feel* the emotions, but nevertheless I did feel that way. Also, do you want it or not but when you make a photograph you mix in a bit of yourself and further when you show it to the public you expose that little bit along the way. Even the most primitive - "me and the Empire State Building" photo has it. I hope I made myself clearer.
