Had I not had that class I doubt I'd be as "skilled" as I am today. Even so, as a learner, I was, and always am to blame for my own misperceptions. See, in the class we learned about apertures. In my Minolta XG-1 manual there was another photographic description of apertures, showing this pretty oriental gal at f 2.8 and at f11. Why, look at how sharp *everything* is at f11! What kind of idiot would shoot at f2.8? Look at how blurry the trees are in the background!Only those who are willing to be taught can learn. Only those who will listen and not misconstrue can be taught.</blockquote>
