HCB or Salgado. Every time you see one | of "their" images, you are really looking at the work of often unamed | technicians. After all, any moron in monkey-cam-mode can click-click- | click and strike heroic photographer-like poses... it takes a true | visual artist however (working alone in a darkroom or with a scanner) | to turn a B&W or colour negative into a final magnificent image. Good point! But I do believe I hear the sounds of apoplexy echoing through the LUG! You've lanced a sacred cow (or two). :-) Mike Gardner "If you are not sure what just happened, don't be the only one smiling" - -Red Green
