I like the those remaining stray hairs personally but I >agree that you won't see them on those 50 covers ;-) ========================================================================================================================================== I think in my career I was an amateur (one who loved photography) masquerading as a professional. I never used a stylist, make up artist, and only rarely had assistance from our students. Also never used Polaroids for checking exposures, etc., or bracketed much, and liked Kodachrome over E6 films. I was fortunate that I could shoot in the style I liked and not pay attention to what the current fashion was.
