Thanks for noticing and commenting on that. Rick's shot probably wouldn't have made it into the book without Ted's and vice versa. People seem to assume that a shot of theirs that doesn't get into the book has been judged inferior in some way. That's often not the case at all. A photograph has to "work" in the context of a whole lot of other images from photographers with wildly varying styles - a very tricky thing to attempt. Few such pairings are so serendipitous, but we really put a lot of effort into making the book a cohesive work, at least as far as such a thing is possible. Sometimes a great part is left out to help achieve a better sum. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
