And won't resent having pictures of him taken, regardless of the gear. As to shooting people in a place where a disaster has struck, I think you need to be a professional of sorts to get accepted when people are suffering, and also that they must feel that the pictures will help, else they might rightly conclude it is just voyeurism. Your Franciscan may have been grieving with the locals? As to sleeping - I work indoors most of the year, and am so happy to unleash my urge for pictures when I get out that, and thanks to digital I never count how many takes I get, well, until I'm back and have to process them ... ;-) Thanks you in any case for your interest and nice comments Amiti?s Philippe Le 17 mars 13 ? 11:47, Cedric Agie a ?crit : > Same remark and question as for NYC.
