----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Talbot" : He took a few shots of some royals - so what? : He only got to do that because of his title "Lord". : So he wasn't a great photog.: he just had the opportunities that class : and privilege brings. this could be said of any journalist granted access to locations that non photographers can't access - or any advertising photographer who gets to take shots of really cool stuff, of airforce photographer who gets to fly in planes doing spectacular things .. they have access and opportunity /others do not. personally I don't have too many memorable Lichfield pics in my head tho, and I know both Greg and I are in mourning over Mr Miyagi.. k
