[snip] Like Bob W, I have had an Arab girl friend (see May 05 PUG), and you could not find (or I could not find) a more charming, normal, and civilised human being. Generalising about Muslims is as futile as generalising about any large, diverse, group. John ======= And yet you did generalize in that statement above. There are quite a few Christians who think the words in the Bible came directly from God to various prophets. And it is full of contradictions as well. Personally, I think if a person really objects it is probably better not to take their photograph. On the flip side, a public place is a public place. So it's really up to the individual photographer on what they decide to do. Marnie aka Doe -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
