<p>Geez, John, how do you find this stuff? :-))</p>

Bar photos (#1) and concerts (#4) make up about 90% of what I shoot these days (and about half of what gets published).

<p>^ how else are you supposed to test the autofocus? :)</p>

[photomark]

^ Squirrels. Duh.

[AJHingel]

<p>So you agree Mike: No Bar shots or Concert shot. It would mean less competition on the marked for you, at least.<br>

As long as we all could agree on not shooting what others have already shot, we would all be less occupied and less boring for others.</p>

<p>They left out photos of "floating orbs" as evidence of ghosts and spirits.</p>

<p>I actually learned at Photo.net that this is nothing other than an optical DOF influenced effect from dust in front of the lens.</p>

<p>Now I know which episode of "My Ghost Story" on Bio channel to call bullsh*t on and skip.</p>

<p>What about endless horizon shots of sunsets. When I was woking in the 1 hour labs, I swear people would stand some where, and do a 360 in the middle of a beach, and keep snapping away. </p>
