I react against lists like this perhaps. I always say "why not" if i did a film i might do them like Jarmush did with never a moving camera. Solid shots with no zooms. I love gorgeous shots of gorgeous people, specifically women. Yep I'm a sucker for that stuff. I love shots of tide pools. Love to take walks in the rain... love darkroom prints AND inkjets. I think I disagree with every damn thing on this list. I've checked it twice! what a coincidence!! meter's in cameras are no good? what bullshit!!!! mark :) rabiner updated temporary Website by "Foxy": http://spokenword.to/rabiner/ (consisting of late night E-mail descriptions of photos)
