Ruddy,
Please understand that you cannot see my pictures because
I have no digital photographic ability or capabilities. I have
a Windows 3.1 computer with 64 Meg of RAM.
Some fine people such as Jim Hemmenway and Doug Herr
have scanned some of my prints and slides. If I can find a
way to send them to you (cannot do it through the RUG), I
will. They are portraits, scenics and shots of our wolf hybrid,
Sascha.
I have been in Leica photography since 1946, and Rolleiflex
photography since 1947. I gave up making money in photography
when I graduated from University in 1953. So you see that I
do not have to have people liking my work.

Let us not start a spitting contest.
That is not the reason why I am "rolling." This site is about rollei
not light meters and Leicas, both of which I have a lot of.
I know you could list a whole rack of stuff you have done, mine might
not be a rack but how do you quantify teaching photography all over
the
world to teenagers.
I am/was laughing because I allowed myself to lose it over a topic
that had little to do with the picture and the camera, which is why I
suppose this site was built.
When I googled the photographers names in question, I did not see any
pics. It was more like a "shake my head, kinda, what was I doing,
kinda
realization response."
I joined this site because I needed help. I actually got it in less
than ten threads. I also enjoy seeing pictures, so that is an
expectation of mine.
You have to believe that I would have looked for you, Marc's and
Jerry's pictures. There was nothing to see. So I got upset with
myself
for losing it.
But in the end that does not even matter because as you yourself put
it, no photographer can see your subject the way you see them. So this
should not be about competition so much as it is about positive
criticism. But not everyone of us can do that either. Some people
feel themselves too big for that too.
But I am here and hopefully everybody else on this site came here to
talk photography, learn about their cameras and see pictures.
Let me preface this for Marc's sake because he claims my English
degree
does not cut cheese (Ebonics) "We here to learn from each other."

Hey guys
If you all want to see something funny, google each other's names
and
see what comes up. I have been doing this for the past two days and
I am rolling
You should do a search on Marc and me on Amazon.com
