Thank you for introducing us to this blog. The post by Jon Foster about thumbnails alone is worth the visit! He says, "My expertise and imagination---or lack of these---were not the reason my images were falling flat. It was the fact that I was shortchanging them from the beginning by taking short cuts." And goes on to describe the preliminary work--largely quick, with a lot of help from the subconscious--that comes before he even starts the picture. Beautiful!
