I'm still interested in the chasm between classical landscape photography and contemporary landscape 'art' - I'm definitely tipping towards the former but leave myself open to influence.. Love the 8x10 btw - would love to play with one..Tim Parkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12597110929479917422noreply@blogger.com
