Shots from the “2006 Tampa Bay Classic”:http://lucas-photo.com/bodybuilding/contests/tbc2K6 are up.

The setup of Jefferson High’s auditorium is, essentially, real-life CinemaScope™. While I was lucky enough to find a seat in the front row, it was quite a ways to the right side. Anyway, some of the angles may appear a bit unusual, and each shot needed some minor tweaking to the rotation, and that’s why. I love what the curtain and the halogen spot did for the color in the shots, so I call it even.

On deck I’ve got updates of Sherry Bubeck’s page, shots from yesterday’s 2006 Mid-Florida Muscle Classic, and some other neat things brewing; I’m not going to make any promises on dates yet as I’ve got rather a lot going on right now.

Those who tend to the extreme right or left often become frustrated about lingering issues (such as, say, gun control) because they don’t see the issues as being complex.

They can’t understand why people don’t automatically agree to implement their (obvious!) solution and sometimes work very hard to try to persuade them to do so– in some cases even ignoring or supressing data that don’t happen to support their point of view, which is a no-no when trying to find a fix that actually works.

The fundamental truth that these people are missing is that if there were an obvious solution to their issue, it wouldn’t be an issue anymore. It would’ve been fixed long ago and no one would be arguing about it.

So polarists, let’s have a little healthy respect for the lingering issues. If it’s still hanging around, theres something your (obvious!) solution isn’t addressing.
