Shel, I respect your judgement and teaching on photography, but our senses of humour are planets apart. I'm sure Juan took the original satire in the spirit it was intended and I dare say that he could / would have emailed me privately if he had thought my satire too cutting. And just in case you or Juan or anyone else gets satire confused with critique, here it is again: >When I see a camera that has the name blanked off, there can only >be one of the following reason's why: > 1) The camera is being used in a shot on film/tv/advertising and the > name is not needed. > > 2) The owner is ashamed of the camera. > > 3) The owner is mad as a March hare. and again >When I see a camera that has the name blanked off, there can only >be one of the following reason's why: > 1) The camera is being used in a shot on film/tv/advertising and the > name is not needed. > > 2) The owner is ashamed of the camera. > > 3) The owner is mad as a March hare. and again >When I see a camera that has the name blanked off, there can only >be one of the following reason's why: > 1) The camera is being used in a shot on film/tv/advertising and the > name is not needed. > > 2) The owner is ashamed of the camera. > > 3) The owner is mad as a March hare.
