Thank you very much Robert! Do you mean the way we look like we don't wash or shave? Or wash our clothes?? :oops: :oops:
I do think that all the little details matter, not just standing in front of the camera, but carrying a knife, a waterskin, not having modern items in the background, etc (except for the rabbit hutch in the background of that second photo :oops: )
Its one of the reasons I love Dan Peterson's photo book so much. It all looks so real.
BTW, Robert, we send all of our new recruits to the FECTIO website as a matter of course. That's not flattery, its the truth.
