Shoot, sometimes the responses to photos are surprising even when I've intentionally tried to "close off" the room for interpretation. But people are so different from each other, that's almost impossible. So I went the other way ... I rarely explicitly try to include a "message" or "story" in my photos. At the race track, there's little room for it anyway ... away from the track, I just take picture that look good to me ... or maybe they have a story for me ... but I don't worry about what they might "say" to someone else. -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
