Lovely work as always, Marc. I appreciate the descriptions of your shots on several levels:
1. I always enjoy hearing (and telling... ;-) stories behind photographic images. I presume that the others have the same sorts of associations with the events surrounding the moments of their photographs as I do, and your descriptions reinforce this feeling.
2. The technical information is always interesting and useful to others, and I appreciate your willingness to share it. (Some fear that if they give this stuff away that others will be able to do what they do - but I think you know that all the techniques in the world won\'t bring back effective photographs.)
3. Writing about the the importance of those parts of photography that go beyond putting the camera in the right place and opening the shutter is so important - it helps counter the bizarre notions that some have about how \"post-processing is wrong.\" Anyone who knows a tiny bit about the history of photography and photographers understands what a bizarre and silly notion that would be. I could say much more than this about that topic, but instead I\'ll end by simply saying thanks for your work and thanks for sharing.
