I agree I should have better said it this way. 036 and 033, which have a certain expression for me, but most of the pictures have the typical "Is the person in the middle of the frame? Ok - click" character, that's what I mean with P'n'S. >As to the politics, I think you might have completely missed my point. I think I must have misunderstood the statement "For you neo-con-death-cult-members you will..." as I understood "you" means me, the reader of your post. I'm not a death-cultist but have my own opinion (which does not matter on this list) about the situation in middle east. And as you wrote about the "good people who do oppose..." I concluded "This people=good, all others=neo-con-death-cult-members". But I must admit english is my 3rd language only and I do sometimes not understand certain subtle distinctions in your language. >Why skip shooting images of people yelling at cops? Because we've seen it >all before... I agree. I mentioned it because you talked about the protester/cop ratio prominently in the beginning of your post, and I thought this might be a part of your visual message. >I always want to show my pictures, I will always take the opporunity to >voice my opinion. Don't like it, hit delete. I never delete, but skip posts (have my own LUG archive...) but it was your second (or third) re:post who made me jump in. >Did I succeed? (...) I feel like I got some decent portraits of people who >oppose the occupation. Seen this way, you succeeded, if your aim was just to make demonstrant portraits. Ok, 033 and 036 are decent. But trash the others :-) Cheers Didier
