I like the way you handled this one. I have begun to put images on /elements_2005_pics, which may interest you. Seeing your beautiful blog I have a few coaching questions.

But not Rinko Kawauchi was criticised, but the first question by the interviewer: <blockquote>Miss Kawauchi, your photos bring me into a world of quiet contemplation, your camera captures the most intricate details of every day life, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary and revealing a lyrical rhythm to our daily lives and surroundings. Before I go into your motifs and motivation, may I start by asking you what cameras you use?</blockquote> See here: <a href="http://www.galleryhopper.org/archives/2006/08/worlds_worst_ph.html" title="At Gallery Hopper blog" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">World's worst interview question</a> And here: <a href="http://edwardwinkleman.blogspot.com/2006/08/does-explanation-destroy-art.html" title="At edward_ winkleman blog" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Does explanation destroy art?</a> While I found the above mentioned interview in PingMag very interesting, it also received some negative response.
