Henry's B+H reference in his signature line also lends credibility to his
opinions, as well as the information he relates to us that he would
obviously be aware of, since he is in the industry everyday. I could put my
company's name in my signature line, but I don't think anyone would
particularly care, since at work I mostly photograph nasty industrial sites
for environmental assessments. Hardly exciting, but boy they sure are good
pictures of hazardous waste sites. Of course I am using an EOS 3 (recently
purchased from B+H) and not a P&S and most other environmental consultants
use. The next company purchase will be some L glass to really give my
pictures of oil spills some snap.
