More importantly, since the camera both used was Neil's, were his daughter's results better, or worse than his taken at the same event? OK! So you corrected my punctuation oversight. Now what? That's the worst job of punctuation editing I've seen. Some how I don't think that is an accurate assessment. Pretty bad considering there was no punctuation editing. So you didn't notice the Eric punctuation edit; "...at the same event." edited to "...at the same event?" ? The comma should be removed between "better" and "or", but that isn't the more noticeable error. Oh! Well. -- Regards, Savageduck |

Was the amazing difference between pictures you took and pictures she took with your camera? Or between pictures you took at the dinner and pictures she had taken at other events? Obviously since we had two different photographers sharing one camera there were "amazing" differences. More importantly, since the camera both used was Neil's, were his daughter's results better, or worst than his taken at the same event. Really just different. It is a matter of her taste compared to mine. I also use the Gimp white she uses something else which seems to give decent results but not to my taste. -- Neil Reverse ‘a’ and ‘r’ Remove ‘l’ to get address. |
