I really enjoy that others get to see my material but I'd have been more comfy with a simple question put initially, <I>Can I use this image?</I> - that said, I don't mind that you do.<BR/><BR/>Good idea for creating awareness while snapping pics too. I find it so hard to verbalize stuff like that that I often bring a friend on a photowalk. Together we can make the other aware of what mechanics to look out for when depicting something.<BR/><BR/>If sort of reversed, it'd mean first creating a story and then actively looking for the images to fit into it.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07557092226753597222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185971001235723488.post-26306918779618695932008-02-05T22:14:00.000+01:002008-02-05T22:14:00.000+01:00The Mama Bear: The pics shown in this particular p...<B>The Mama Bear:</B> The pics shown in this particular post (which you replied to) are just an example.
