SP is wherever you happen to be photography, shot with any lens or film and done without disturbing the pictures content.
Having just returned home on that dreadful morning, I did what anyone would do, and turned on the TV. George W Bush (or Chimpy as many later called him) was coming into form, after a very feeble start. I was shocked by the SEVEN minutes as much as anybody. I had hoped that “The Seven Minutes” would remain a novel by Irving Wallace and not this new footnote in American history. People were either shocked by how inept Bush was, or if they’d voted for him, they gave him a pass, saying he was under incredible pressure. Either way, this was the beginning of “A Brave New World” and the results of the massacre that morning will be felt for a very long time…

Don’t worry, they’re not packing anything other than money. Probably unaware that the jobs they still have make them very lucky. The long day working, whether it be for peanuts or real coin, is still apt to leave one none to friendly towards my camera…
I understand, and wish that I could help them…
