I bet a tourist type outfit would grab it in a moment simply because it eschews... Beauty, Quiet and not a million people sharing the landscape! Even better? It illustrates "CLEAN AIR COUNTRY SIDE!" Harder to find these days than many might think. Besides with a little PHOTOSHOP you could have cloned in an Alien space craft into the beautiful blue of the sky and sent it to CNN as a "wildly seen moment over the desert! Where unbeknownst by the military, Alien space craft have been landing for ages and you have photo proof!" :-) Yeah I know... "Ted go back to bed or have another cup of coffee!" :-) But look at it this way. The media are gullible enough these days they'd believe your story and in twenty minutes TWITTER would have it tweeted to a billion viewers around the world! ;-) Or vise versa get some innocent bystander to TWEET it! :-) Then you can't be charged with nefarious foolishness! :-) However? You stand by camera in hand waiting for the hordes of "TWEET-HEADS" who'd descend the area in moments. You shoot the hordes, then "sell the first ever alien images" to a moronic "news only channel" for a fortune because your first on the scene! Make a fortune and quietly re-tire on your own exclusive island . :-) What the hell go for it! ;-) cheers, Dr. ted :-) See what can happen when a vey nice scene triggers your wild and crazy imagination???????? :-) Yeah OK! The guys with white coats just arrived so I must leave now!! ;-) ;-) _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
