I'm not going to stop shooting my gal.  That's not in question.  I'm trying
to decide whether the PAW is an appropriate channel for this project.  I was
hoping to get feedback as to how I could shoot pics of my kid more as pieces
of a portfolio than as family snapshots.  I've gotten private feedback that
says the LUG isn't the place for my family pictures.  Rocks and trees and
strangers are welcomed, but not family.  Unless the family pictures are
interspersed with rocks and trees and strangers.  I'm being rude to use the
PAW as I have been.  This comes from somebody whose opinion I respect a lot.

I apologize if anybody feels I've been rude.  Or feels that I'm mocking the
seriousness of the group by posting pictures of my daughter.

Don't get me wrong...I'm not stopping my personal project.  The link I
posted will continue to work all year long.  If my chosen subject matter
isn't appropriate for the LUG, I won't post update messages saying that I've
updated it.  I'll update it quietly for myself.
