From what I understand, the photographers are told to go out there and cover an event/area/whatever. The storyline may not have even been created yet. "Come back with pictures that we can use for any story that we decide we like." Just because an image isn't used in National Geographic doesn't mean that it is a horrid photograph. It means the editors decided to use a different slant. To use your thousand monkeys example, it means that if you were to retrieve the papers from the wastebasket, you might find wonderful poems and screenplays, but the editors decided they were in the mood for a good limerick. :) Eric - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
