Hello Keith,

 

All's well that ends well! :-)

 

The joys of a bit of internet misunderstanding. :-)

 

Kindest regards,

ted

Ted - I was actually agreeing with you  and Steve - wholeheartedly!  Of 

course I wouldn't suggest that you were armchair photographers - quite 

the reverse!  It's easy for those who don't to criticise those who do. ( 

Indeed, if someone never actually does anything, they can't be 

criticised  for what they've done, can they? ;-)    )  It hadn't 

registered with me that you would read into it the opposite of what I 

meant.   I thought at the time that my comment tallied with the gist of 

your exchange.. just didn't come out right...shouldn't write late at 

night when I really should  be in my bed, should I?

 

Ted, I can't and wouldn't dream of claiming to be in your league so far 

as photography is concerned.  Over the years, though, I have tried 

various difficult photographic subjects; sometimes the results were 

fine, sometimes not.  I'm sure you, or anyone else, could criticise many 

of my efforts - but at least I tried to get the results that I wanted, 

and wasn't put off by failing to achieve them.  As you say, there is 

always something to learn; as a professional engineer with 45 years in 

industry, I have always had a strong creative, inquiring urge.  If I 

lost my thirst for learning, for creativity, I would have also lost my 

thirst for life.

 

Steve, I hope you weren't taking exception to my comment re your dawn 

shot!  I was trying to be constructive, and just musing a little.  It 

was a nice shot!

Cheers

Keith
