Walt -

Totally with you on that point. I don't really care one bit about  
what size camera, lens, focal length, film, sensor, silver, platinum,  
ink, dye, etc. is used to produce a powerful image. The image itself  
trumps all the tech crap each and every time.

I watched a wonderful documentary on the political cartoonist, Paul  
Conrad, last evening. His work is simply stunning. He produced 365  
cartoons a year for decades and is still doing four a week; at 80+  
years of age. Not once did he discuss his pens, pencils, papers or  
light box. ;^)
