I'm with you, Bob, I don't take a lot of "people pictures", but for me I don't know that it's preference, or the fact that I'm just not very good at it. It's something that I'm trying to learn/improve upon (just this weekend I took the MX to a Bike Courier BBQ and burned a roll and a half of film - that after burning a couple of rolls in the afternoon at one of Toronto's Jazz Festivals - gotta start developing my own; this is getting expensive).
That being said, I've always been liked finding patterns in objects, or better yet, using the camera to "make" patterns where they might otherwise not be obvious. I find that wide angle lenses can be very useful for that, in some circumstances. One of my favourite photographers is Margaret Bourke-White, including her early "industrial" work for (I think it was) Fortune Magazine, and of course her picture of the dam on the inaugural Life Magazine. Incredible stuff, that... regards, frank Bob Rapp wrote: > I am just the opposite, I like pictures without people. Structure, > organization, lines and of course scenic are my favourite subjects.
