As I've said before, all this clamour for "clarification" of photographers' rights was a Bad Idea.

Whenever we ask authority for clarification the answer is never what we expect or want, but always something worse.

I'm just using Elements 7 for some teaching purposes, and it's actually very good. It has a lot of the features of the fully fledged Photoshop and really is probably as much as most of us need.

A large window gives nice even illumination. Sometimes I switch on the room lights to given some tungsten coloured highlights, but not if it's for eBay.

How old is JR's avatar
Well I can tell you that it was shot in the studio by published glamour photographer Paul Jones and, although that didn't help much, I thought I'd mention it.

My avatar is otherwise an accurate and (fairly) current representation of me hiding in shadows.....

I'm tempted to say I'm much better looking in the flesh, so to speak, but I wouldn't lie to you. Would I?

Thanks for that info, I'm only sorry we didn't know about it sooner so we could see it in its raw state.

We'll see you there in May!

Probably, but don't expect mega-bucks! What specifically is the lens?

I was just referring to the general run of the thread, which has a few things a bit mixed up, not to any specific post.
