Identity is race, race is skin color, and so the capture of a person's identity (and hence the quality of the photograph) is entirely determined by how accurately it renders the skin color. Nothing else matters. I don't share this belief at all, but I've chosen never to argue about it. Quality is in the mind of the beholder. > My mother always insisted in having us stand 30 feet away, staring > directly into the sun.
