fstop nonsense

jaime e-mailed me an interesting response to this post i wrote a few days ago.

"so, i was looking through some of your recent posts, and i came across this. i thought about how i always took my pics at f/22, or 45/64... then not too long ago, i flipped out, looked at this one image i took (above) and was just like.. 'wow.. i keep sharpening the shit out of everything... not only that, my light is constantly over everything.. why the heck do i keep doing this?'

.. just thought it was interesting."

i have to agree, it's interesting how committed we become to the aesthetic habits we adopt early on.
