snip Philo's posted shots usually show ordinary people, so I really did not expect glamor. The important thing is that he seems to truly enjoy photography and doesn't appear get hung up on technical bull****. Glad to see there is at least one sane person here It's hard for me to believe how linearly some people think. Here I was , allowed into a woman's dressing room with a camera the day before a fashion show! In the photos I posted, all the gals were just goofing around, laughing and putting on whatever weird stuff they could find. Though I of course did end up with a few good shots...for the most part all I wanted to say was how fun it was. The next day, the fashion designers had me come in to do some of the video...which much to my surprise was not too bad. Their videographer could not make it to the event so I had to fill-in. Fortunately there was one other person shooting video...so between the two of us the job got done. I did get some moderately decent photos as well but found out I am not cut out to be a fashion photographer. One of my friends, who has worked in the fashion industry did a better job with her iPhone. |

snip ..com/s/xzjxu82xsi9l6dk/Kat_25.JPG?dl=0 I can't put my finger on it, but your images have a tendency to make me feel that I am at your location, as opposed to simply viewing it. Again, thanks for the kind words...if you get that feeling it is indeed probably because I take no time to think about the technical aspect...I just got into the action myself and just snapped away with no thought to the perfect composition...the correct f-stop and shutter speed. Only rarely will I take a posed shot...and if I do...it's usually no more than , "Hey, look at me a second." |

In an add to promote Florida, Anita Bryant was saying "come on down," some people brought a lawsuit claiming it was an invitation, and Anita Bryant should pay for their trip. I am too lazy to look up the result. -- PeterN |
