No kidding, especially someone like St. Ansel, and how he treated his
printing ("the negative is the score, the print is the performance").
I was lucky enough about a year or 18 months ago to see a Magnum
exhibit here in Toronto (I know I told you all about it already), and
to see iconic prints by my heroes (HCB, Erwitt, Robert Capa, Arnold
and more) is as close to a religious experience as I'll ever have <g>.
Glad you got the chance to see the AA exhibit, Dave. Even more glad
to hear how much you got out of it.
