I do trust you mon Ami Ted.

And I do concur on the approach.

Yet, the guy had talented folks downstream to catch up with his 

'carelessness'.

and I will never cease to admire his tireur(s) who deserve so much more 

than usually admitted.

 

You need both to get a masterpice, I think.<<<<<

 

Philippe that is so true! You do need both all the time. If one is a
careless shooter riding on their so called " natural skills?"  They better
have the Great Spirit riding along side with excellent technicians to
correct the photographers. "Natural sloppiness!"  :-) No matter how good he
or she has been built up in the press and by public relations people.
