Well, who cares about the vignetting if the
pictures are so nice ?  OK, the background
unsharpness is really nice etc. but the
personalities radiate out of shot number 1, 3 and
4 and the 2nd swimming pool shot.  That's worth a
lot more than the vignetting.

If you give a shoe box with a wooden shutter of
fixed 1/10s to a good photographer, and you hand
an F5 with the best lenses to an amateur, the
former will take the best pictures.  I *urgently*
need to shoot more film.


Peter.
