Thanks Nihat. Interesting.

Yes indeed, Pete. I've learned some new tricks!

Fascinating on a number of levels. In particular, his observation about looking at what's in the background first. And also, with regard to the iconic photo of the kiss on VJ Day, how lucky he was that she appeared. And yet, he made his own luck didn't he,...by getting ahead of the fellow and watching and snapping and then,...and then she appears. Sooo interesting! Thanks for posting Nihat.

This YouTube is like open university with no tuition, Brian.

That was a very interesting half hour, thank you. To be honest I was not familiar with his name, but it seems I am familiar with some of his work.
