I understand your annoyance with it, but I don't mind it so much. To me it suggests that once you realize that it takes planning, practice and active participation to get successful images, then your photography will start improving seriously. As opposed to that mindless drive-by point and click that so many tourists are observed doing. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
