He could have >very well meant it metaphorically. That is, "CLOSE" could mean emotionally >or personally. Being "close" to the subject may not mean feet or metres. Actually, I think that's exactly what he meant. Too many photographers are not careful in their compositions. They tend to shoot too loosely. Include too much extraneous detail. Not peel enough layers of the onion...is that enough metaphors? :-) Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Exaggeration is not all it's cracked up to be.
