Cheers! I suppose on forums this size there will always be differences of opinion and it's good that people can express what they think without fear of being condemned for feeling passionate about something that perhaps others may not agree with.
Thankyou all for your patience!

I promise I'll shut up now!!

This was never about me posting mages or not posting images or, heaven forbid, thinking I was owt special!! Far from it. It's just something I've been involved in and I suppose 'progress' will go on regardless of my views and we will see the demise of all but the most famous of Wildlife Photographers.
Ultimately I suppose it's a positive step that photography has opened its doors to many more people who can now afford what they once could not. Standards have been raised and more control given with the advent of digital photography. Once upon a time we used to worry about the cost of film and printing and now we've been, to a certain extent, liberated from these financial constraints .. as long as you can afford the camera and lenses
