I don't intend to comment on the Lolita picture because everything's been said already. Rather, my thoughts are regarding persons who may have withdrawn from this forum. Don't get me wrong, James Russell seemed like a very knowledgeable guy and is an amazing photographer. But people are acting like it's their own mother at stake here. For all his knowledge and photographic skills, James is, to most of us, just some guy on the Internet. I mean, if you know him, I can understand being miffed at his absence. But for the rest of us -- come on!
I also think Michael has a perfectly valid point (not necessarily directed James) about not being maligned in his own house. Disagreed with, sure, to the extent he's willing to put up with it. But some of the comments (again, NOT necessarily James') verge on calling him a child pornographer. We're free to think and say that, but Michael is equally free to kick us out of his private space when we do so.
Now, can we please get back to medium format matters? I could use a TFP model in Cleveland to help me test out my new P30+. :-) (Seriously).
