Jim:
Interesting observation re: shooting existing artwork.  I think you are
right, but I dont do it consciously. That is I dont go out and look for
other people's art and interpret it.  Looking back at my recent stuff there
is a lot of this going on.  Since I quit doing color tripod stabilized
"nature" photography awhile back (another static genre) I've tried to open
my mind to alternatives to trees and sunsets.  Maybe I need to try a little
harder!

thanks for your comments... it helps
