I always pick the longer lens, and always think I get the *better* image by takinga step back and zooming in.

Different strokes, I guess….

Get right up in the action if at all possible. Not only does it connect the person more strongly it makes the image much more dynamic. It energizes the photo. BTW: I have also seen the Natcheway documentary. Excellent. I also recently watched a film on Sally Mann that was superb. Capa one too. I think they have all been on Bravo if I'm not mistaken. Worth a look by anybody interested in the artist's process.</p> Excellent point … and I think … very true. Get right up in the action if at all possible.
