Margaret Bourke-White (IMHO one of the greats) could not even use a light meter, let alone print (she had two great printers who worked for her during her career). There is a story that Ansel Adams once aksed her (in admiring her work) how she judged exposure. Her reply was "Oh Ansel! I just shoot a sheet at every aperture/shutter speed combination that looks good." (or words to that effect). The proof of the pudding... etc. Steve P London __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send instant messages & get email alerts with Yahoo! Messenger. http://im.yahoo.com/
