I certainly don't try to show them off as photographs in their own right, but I've handed a few across to people doing a similar job in the way you would lend someone a tool to make the work easier. As for positive feedback, like your house, you weren't buying the picture of it, you were buying the item and that's what you get the positive feedback on :-) Estate agents/real estate photograph is an art in it's own right. Had someone with the wallet of Bill Gates been buying a similar property, you would have found the mountains in perfect focus. That's because they would have formed part of the garden. The mountains and views are spectacular around your house, even though they aren't yours!
