You, as a photographer, are certainly not oblivious to the presence of a photographer. But you care enough about your work, be it photographing or teaching, to continue doing it, 'ignoring' the photographer. Brittany Spears, on the other hand, is incapable of wiping her a** without looking to see where the photographers, and turning toward them. ;-) On 1/13/08 4:22 PM, "Tina Manley" <images@comporium.net> wrote: > At 04:11 PM 1/13/2008, you wrote: >> TThey -- the villagers and the surgeons -- are not idiots totally lost in >> their tasks while we perform ours, and that's the essence of the bargain: >> to >> each his/her own work. >> >> Emanuel > > How about my example of being observed while teaching?
