Keith, no need in my mind to apologise about being philosophical..... as we are all involved in an art form that allows for freedom of expression it stands to reason that we will over time either become philosophical in nature or at least learn to appreciate the philosophies of others :o) Cheers Sean --------------------------------------------------------------------- "It is better to remain silent and look like a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt...." --------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT NOTICE: This e-mail is confidential, may be legally privileged, and is for the recipient only.

Learning to see rather than to look, is the key to being able to interpret the world. Once a person learns to see, AND has mastered the tools of his/her art, everything becomes second-nature and instinctual. Instinct is something everyone has. It's just a matter of listening to your mind's voice and doing whatever it takes to interpret what you see. Your result will be unique as no one else has ever, or will ever see as you do. It is truly wonderful to be able to see something and present it in a manner that tells everyone that the resulting piece (in our case, a photograph), is your interpretation of what you saw. This is a lifetime endeavor and as such, we always seek to achieve this. Sorry for being so philosophical about this, but this came to me and I felt I needed to share it. I hope I have not wasted your time. Keith Please visit the Group Homepage to check the Files, and other resources as they are often being updated.
