Re: new subject line about ...... aaaggghhh!!!! ...."consensus'!
Bogdan You are wrong to think you were wrong. From this group there is a lot to learn about the craft of alt photography, and also plenty of new words. But what you get in addition, the hidden bonus, is an insight into the mystery (or more correctly mistery) - the customs and protocols, lore and myths, and other unique manifestations of the culture of alt photography. You can enjoy that bonus even as a lurker, but I think it is good form to post something every now and then to let the main participants know you are watching; otherwise you can sometimes experience something approaching voyeuristic guilt, especially during their friskier exchanges.
