It's bad enough with "snail mail" but it must be tough waiting for the "Yak mail" over the mountains. :) Issue 3/97 just arrived and I thought it was time to bring it to the attention of other LUGNUTS who might not be aware of it, as I feel it is a much better magazine than the old version. And like you say, "with next to nothing of advertising." It is finally beginning to warm-up here and I'm working on an assignment on daffodils of all things. Me a people shooter and I'm down on my knees doing flowers and I'm having a great time, as I was told to shoot them with a completely open mind and "do what you think will produce interesting things! " So my assistant has been driving the car and I've been shooting a huge bed of flowers along side a road as we drive by shooting at slow shutter speeds, 1/30th and 1/15 for the "wild side" look. I've done a lot of this "swishy pan" stuff at the Olympics so I wondered what it might look like on flowers. I can always call it "next millinium nuveau art!" :-) Keep tuned. :) ted
