Yesterday, as I was shooting the last few teams at a club after a 9 week stint, I handed over team and portrait prints to a female coach, of an U14 girls team from the week before. Nice young ladies, mainly. But with the first of the two team photos I took, the girl standing next to the coach had poked her tongue out, sort of at the coach. The lab had printed 8 of each frame, so half of the girls would be getting the pokey one, and half not. The coach headed off, then came back, having noticed the tongue, and furious. I said "I thought you'd be cross that only half the girls are getting a copy of that one. Those who've missed out will be upset." That really pissed her off! She realised her bullying wasn't going to work, started with a little tantrum, and then tried to rope a few other customers in. I asked her to see if the girl with the tongue wanted to pay for a re-shoot. That sent her ballistic. Stormed off in a huff. Sheesh! Get a life lady! Maybe it was handy I had just taken the monopod off my Nikon ... :-) Rick. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
