Look at it this way, Bob - You can download the PDF for free and see how bad
it is, and at the same time you can buy several homeless people meals with
that $10 you're apparently willing to flush down the toilet.  :-)

You're probably right B.D., but I'd like to believe that ANYONE can
improve. In any event, I'm curious and I'm only risking 10 bucks.

focusing or exposure.

Do you really think you are somehow doing someone who is so obviously
terminally self-deluded a favor by encouraging his delusions?

If you want to see some photos worth buying, go to the link's Doug Herr has
provided. I am not a fan of nature photography, but I know terrific
photography when I see it...
http://www.wildlightphoto.com/leicaprints.html
http://www.wildlightphoto.com/ordering.html

How can we possibly discuss Doug Herr's offerings and Alfie Wang's on the
same list?

It boggles the mind.
