To voodoo: Smack
Thanks for all your comments vodoo, I appreciate it. On this one I thought I'd comment on "smack in the middle". Matters not. These basic rules of composition are guides more than laws. With the BG...

Thanks for the nice comments. Very curious to know what coffee table books on this place you have seen. Complete books, or just a few shots? I know of none, and have a friend working on such a...

Re: To don_narayan: Thanks for the Nice Comment
Thanks Swiss. I may not have been on my best behavior with Don, but clearly his views are black and white, and mine more understanding of both sides. I understand your frustration. There seems little...

To philip_coggan: Color vs bW
In this case I think the color is superior. Which is why I can never be strictly BW or strictly Color. Just depends on the image.
Best,

The sunset of the American empire will not help. A great American leader might, but again, dream on. Of course the Israelis themselves could do it, but as most of us know, the...

Re: To eleparc: WS?
I believe the island beach scene (not the kids) is part of a poster, clear platered to the wall.
BTW, I'm being censored like crazy with this series, for being "politically insensitive".

How about one more insult then--you are a simpleton. You react viscerally only to the perceived negative and ignore each and every point of possible common ground. Then you fall back on the tired and...

Re: To bboss: Be Sure
I agree with most of what you have stated. What they agree on is very simple: that Israel abandon the settlements, pull back behind the '67 borders, allow Palestine to become a free state, and to...

Thanks for the nice response David. How you can be pro-both is by being pro-peace, pro-fair-peace. I have friends on both sides. Most of them agree. Too bad the Zionists in power do not. Too bad the...
