That would've made it even worse!  :D


Yeah, but don't forget: Capa was Magnum.

This isn't a total failure from the outset; it's worse.
Mediocre concept>a lot of post-processing time>mediocre result.
I could have saved myself a lot of trouble if I'd
trashed it at the beginning.

Resignedly,

I put a square flashlight beam on a five pointed flower and then pretented at length that it just needed more work.

Have you since acquired a flashlight with a five-sided beam?   ;)

So, you really were a mathematician!

Well, not really a mathematician. More like a Professor of math. "Profess" means pretty much the same as "pretend," so a "professor" is someone who pretends to know something about his or her field. I managed to keep up the pretense for 35 years, and happily retired so I could spend more time pretending to be a photographer.   ;D

During my time in a Tibetan monastery - must have lived in one for seventy-seven years - daily windowsill entertainment found in watching the vultures do their eternal clean-up work was often spoiled by that chance glance into the mirrors on my walls. Those instantly broke my belief that I was alone: the bloody cell was crowded!

Two cheetahs chasing each other, running withing few meters of me. This is what I got with 600 mm while trying to keep the animal in the viewfinder.
