Re: Me and Bobby McGee
Absolutely, Mark ... I've been shooting scenes through rain streaked windows and windshields for years. In fact, the very first photos I took, with some kind of little "box" camera, was through the rain spattered windshield of the family car at night ... photographing street lights. They didn't turn out too well. One of the reasons I used the digi that night was because I couldn't get the pics I wanted at the Hotsy Totsy Club, and I needed some instant gratification. Ben & Jerry's would have worked, too, but I was too far from the B&J shoppe shel (wanting ice cream) Mark Cassino wrote: > But seriously - would you have taken that shot with a film camera?

Very cool, Shel... especially those white dots under the photo where the caption would normally be (Just funning..)

Re: Me and Bobby McGee
True, yet you passed judgment without an explanation. So, imo, it's not a critique, just an opinion. And there's nothing wrong with expressing an opinion, nothing at all. In fact, you yourself note that your comments were just an opinion.
