I'm just about to leave for work (here in Western Australia), so I'll have to create the extra pages this evening. Apologies to the 'dial-ups'! (Do we have a survey of how many of us are on broadband?) Yep, the 'missing boot' annoys me as well. But I guess that's the nature of grab shots on the street. I'm more about image and story than technical quality. Some of the 'rough' Harlem shots are me walking with the camera in my palm facing away from me :ie I'm shooting backwards in an effort to grab anything. In these situations, which are often just instinct stuff, quality is secondary and getting a perfectly posed/framed shot is very hard. I would have been thrown out of the Skimpy Show if I'd been caught with a camera, so I'm not even looking in the same direction when I take the shots.
