    -<!--[endif]-->shoot portraits in morning sun?
    <!--[if !supportLists]-->-<!--[endif]-->neutral colors look best?
    <!--[if !supportLists]-->-<!--[endif]-->all colors look more intense on b&w film? (just not true)
    <!--[if !supportLists]-->-<!--[endif]-->close your eyes until the photographer counts down to zero, then open them?
    <!--[if !supportLists]-->-<!--[endif]-->and the worst advice of all, lean back with your weight on your rear foot?
    <o:p> </o:p>
    I love the fact that someone took the time and effort to make a video like that, but I guess I just disagree with most of the advice. Sorry, not trying to cause trouble.

    I don't want the cheese, I just want to get out of the trap.

    I didn't even really pay attention to the video. I'm a lighting junkie anyway. Now that you mention those things. Most of your points make sense.

    I think the video is satirical, like the "professional myspace photographer." I think.
