Insane, that was just the point I was making - you ever seen a fast-moving funeral? he would have had time to set himself up here to get a better shot. Jealous? No, not really. If I was a professional photographer, yeah, maybe, everyone would like to win the top award in their class, but I'm not. If I wanted to win Amateur competitions, I'd take more pics and enter them. I don't, and I know better than to whinge about something without doing anything about it. I just honestly don't think it's deserving; I think that that particular photo could have been taken by any half-assed amatuer if he was in that same place at that time, and that technically it leaves a lot to be desired. Just because he's willing to risk his neck there doesn't mean that is a good pic. (",)
