I was simply expressing my opinion on the quality of the imagery in Shutterbug. The quality of images is in the eye of the beholder. If you believe that a photo that I call a "snapshot" is a work of art, then for you it's a work of art. Fine with me. Opinions are just that--opinions. They can be accepted or rejected. Opinions in the field of art and photography are particularly up for grabs given each viewers unique sensibilities. Some great curators can' shoot worth a damn, but that doesn't mean they don't have a good "eye" in selecting great photographic images. The implication of your comment was that the validity of my opinion on the quality of Shutterbug's images somehow depended, at least in part, on your assessment of the quality of my images. Would you be more inclined to accept my criticism of Shutterbug's images if you saw and liked my work? I hope not. Whether you like Shutterbug's images has nothing to do with your perception of the quality of my images. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
