As she has her ears on, she probably didn't hear you coming.
Another thread here made me think again of the impossible 2/200mm Nikkor.
Something that surprised me - to an extent - about Saul was his embracing of digital. On the other hand, I can understand that film got rather awkward - and expensive - if he was still thinking, at the time, about paying his light bills. I've seen images of him with a Panasonic G1, but as with William Klein and a Sony or Fuji - I forget which - I wonder if it's all to do with advertising. How cynical the industry makes one become. Even, perhaps, without cause. Perhaps Saul's rebirth came too late, but if not, then were I Leica, he'd have had a brand new camera in his hands, with all the glass he wanted.
During lunch today I went onto Goggle's Patrick Lichfield Imagenes list, and I remember he really did get a bum deal from some of the UK press corps. He did good fashion and calendar shoots. Maybe it's in the British psyche to try to knock those of better birth conditions than the norm. Yes, access is always a huge plus, but one shouldn't forget that the goods still need delivering; nothing gets you a second bite at any cherry if you drop a client into the deeper smellies.
