Hey Mark and all,

I am still amazed at the number of people who think
that the images by Rob Gendler, Adam Block and other
CCD guys are done with just a few minutes exposure
time. From what I've seen (do you agree Rob?) the
CCDers spend as much time, or more, on any quality
image as compared to a comparable film image.

That's why I also, am in no hurry to venture into the
'dark world' right away. OTOH, I am learning about it
as I believe it will be part of the future for most of
us.

Alan
