Even if Ted will disagree ;) It's not a friggin landscape!! Maybe it's only a fad and you old timers will be right in the long run but have fun with it while you can!! Fast and loose while still thinking about composition!! w3wT !!

I know what you mean about Travel & Leisure and I just joined another e-mail list that's made up of mostly very young photojournalists. Every photo is very crooked! That's the style. Who am I to argue ;-) I know Ted will have things to say about the crooked frame. I thought it was a fun exposure for just winding the film on and not aiming or anything! By the way, Honduras does run down hill ...... and up hill. There's not a flat place in the country! That's why my knees are gone!!
