I understand your rationale, but 'v...Hi Pedro,<br /><br />I understand your rationale, but 'very badly done' is a little on the harsh side.<br /><br />Could the portraits have been executed in a more spot on technical way?<br /><br />Without a doubt.<br /><br />But working in a harsh environment like Afghanistan is clearly a challenge like no other, with external factors effecting the shoot more than straight forward photography.<br /><br />I myself have made so many mistakes and 'Mis thought'under pressure and in stressful situations.<br /><br />In my career I have made many more bad photos than I have good.<br /><br />My career has been been built on a mountain of mistakes, and that is what makes me who I am today.<br /><br />The key thing is she did it, and opened a window on a situation that perhaps none of us had ever considered.<br /><br />I don't actually know Lalage but I salute her and her project.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />drewAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10359795436606745114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644629870779379729.post-61610578565222584702012-01-19T05:54:39.856-08:002012-01-19T05:54:39.856-08:00A good idea very badly done.
