I confess that I lie and say "I don't remember whether it was taken with my
Olympus or my Nikon set." It has somewhat to do with a phenomenon Barry
Bean talked about a while ago: people asking what camera was used in order
to praise the camera for the nice picture it took. I want to be able to
cause disruption to that logic at the outset. :-)
My other least favorite question is "Did you do this picture on your
computer?" I want to say, "If you have to ask, does it matter?" but I
usually just say "I shoot film and make digital prints." Ackkk.
