If the optical afterlife is divided into Optical Heaven and Optical Hell and *only* those two, and the attributes of Optical Heaven are (A) everything is in focus all the time, (C) bokeh has been eradicated, and (C) only correctly exposed pictures exit, then Optical Hell must, by conclusion, contain everything which fits "not (A and B and C)" which is quite different from that which fits "(not A) and (not B) and (not C). Consequently, a correctly focused, correctly exposed picture with portions of the frame out of focus must belong to Optical Hell. Which is where I'm heading ;) M. - -- Martin Howard | Visiting Scholar, CSEL, OSU | "That's sad, but that's poker." email: howard.390@osu.edu | www: http://mvhoward.i.am/ +---------------------------------------
