I most certainly agree. Some people on this list - say Shel for candid shots and Frank (see below) for reflections - show pictures which from the eye of the viewer have dispensed with the camera at all; it's as though you were looking through the eyes of the person who took the shot. With me, it's always apparent there was a camera in-between the two. To be able to use your camera as 'eyes' is the key - I'm still trying to achieve that. Malcolm # Everyone praises Frank's ability for candid shots, which are good. Take another look at his ability with use of reflections, we have seen this recently with a building, a motorcycle engine cover and an old Jaguar car, note the reflection from the bumper.
