Dave, strange coincidence today I'm clearing out some old mags. In one (7th September 2002 edition of UK Amateur Photographer) there was an article on Street Photography featuring the work of Nils Jorgensen. One picture really stretches the bounds of faith in the author's assertion that everything is "relying on chance things all the time". http://www.in-public.com/nilsfolio.html Specific image: http://www.in-public.com/nilsimages/twoheads.jpg This is much clearer in the magazine but, how can I phrase my scepticism, "you couldn't have chosen the old man, or placed him in the frame, or chosen his expression, better if the picture had been a set up!" I feel sorry for doubting the author's "honesty" if he really was just walking by and saw the juxtaposition ... Bob
