A recognized photographer like Annie Leibowitz probably has incredible latitude from her clients and with her subjects (if you've seen some of her celebrity work, you'll know what I mean). She may have the highest profile of any photographer in the world because of her celebrity work and her earlier Rolling Stones work. The same latitude she has is probably not available to other professional photographers. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
