How many luggers feel that way ? Not me: You will never be Henri Cartier-Bresson, but then again, he can never be you, either. I think a lot of perfectly good photographers go around thinking their original ideas are unworthy, because theirs is not a recognized style, and others don't quite know what to make of them-yet. Somewhere, someone's probably got a collection of amazing kids-and-dogs photos or Quicktime VRs that could totally change our attitudes about what Fine Art can be. Once word gets around, EVERYONE will want to do kids and dogs! Jeff
