Luis,

>>>? You do not feel the slightest twinge of concern or ambivalence about
dictating what all other photographers should do ? <<<

Hhhmmmmm, it seems you are in fact, asking why should you be expected to
follow certain guidelines? Are you not a member of a society the minute you
call yourself a photographer? Openly wishing photographers in general made
an effort toward some form of discipline in their work is not dictating how
photographers should behave. Can it not be considered instead, as avocation
toward higher ideals? Being a responsible member of a community?

Did you not mention in an earlier post the American Society of Media
Photographers? How do you think they would answer your question?

>>>Do you really believe this to be 1) Possible, and 2) A good idea ? <<<<

1) No
2) Yes in certain criteria. Call yourself a journalist and regardless of
what you think, audiences have certain expectations. If that is bothersome,
call yourself an editorialist and then, there is no reason to care.


Take care,
Gregory david Stempel
