Pen, pencil, and paintbrush is one of my wasted talents which is sort of a regret for me.  But with photography when I think of themes or composition or portraits I always resort to the old masters of draughtmanship and painting before I get to any of the camera guys.  An example...you want to learn what a wide angle can do go look at Brueghel the Elder.  After him then you go look at HCB. haha</blockquote>
