Puttin' out fires around here, getting caught up so I can have some holiday time.
Let me vouch for Dave and the pic's, based on three years experience of putting photo's together for the classroom, they lie like a rug when you don't want them too and tell on you when you don't want them too. They have an uncanny ability to pick out little flaws you overlook with your eyes like you wouldn't believe. I photograph most of my work, especially cosmetic work, as I can get a more critical view of the work, but conversely, when I am taking photo's for the class, especially when I need to do something for a student that has hit a dead end and needs some clarification, I seem to have trouble getting the picture to show what I want it too. If Dave says the headspace is right, I'm sure it is, there's no reason for him to say it is when it's not. If your basing your pacing over the pictures, save the wear on the rug, if not, clue me in as to why your tracking up your living room.
BTW, give me a ring LATE Friday or over the week-end, I've some some parts we need to talk about that we PM'd about before.
