[Pedro the Fisherman]

It looked like a polite enquiry to me. I think everyone here appreciates the work Pedro does (26,000+ thanks is evidence) but he does seem to be overreacting.

Telling me I post poor quality photos (that his phone can better) and telling to shell out for a new higher quality camera, because it is basically my 'duty' (at least inferred) would have been better as a PM to me, IMHO. If that sort of comment had come from a fellow contributor of original photos, I would have reacted without anger. However, anyone who does put original stuff up here is normally sympathetic and polite.

Judging by the terrible spelling and slightly odd language ( what the hell is engaded) used (despite the avatar) maybe 'Bronne' is not an native english speaking person, in which case it is understandable that I may have over stated my reaction. The thing is, that is my right, I have no obligation to post here at all. I do it because it gives many members some small amount of pleasure.

I will continue to post here, but my enthusiasm may be a little less than normal for a while. I will be looking out for some others (with more money than me) to take up the challange, for 'HQ hi-res photos' in future. I suggest that if you do not like my stuff, ignore this thread and follow the great many other threads that are here.
