The only picture I half way liked was by Mamiko Konishi - 'fly_high_#2' with
its birds, roof lines and aerials (sans dog). However, I wonder if it
wasn't helped along by PhotoShop and this gets me thinking about the goals
of the e-zine.
If I was a camera company I'd want to show photographs that would clearly
depict what the cameras are capable of in the field. All this 'creativity'
kind of loses this. Jeez, if I didn't know better I would think the
pictures are square cropped digitals.

I understand your point Jan and in fact I also prefer
Fritz Henle (writing an example), however I find
interesting to see different point of views about
photography and other arts even if I dislike them, I
think F&H magazine took a right decision showing
different photography styles, the number 1 was
dedicated in part to classical B&W portraiture.
I disliked Mamiko Konishi work completely, anyway it
was interesting to know her work, I liked some
Toshihiro Oshima photographs.
