It is perfectly intuitive, but it is still not something we naturally think about. Thanks for the article!!

I check it every day. Always great stuff. I really enjoyed this entry on the history of film. I like to sometimes employ old school techniques just for fun. The other day I took the lens off my SLR and put a piece of thin cardboard with a tiny hole in the middle of it over the aperature. I took a long exposure and lo and behold, there was the image!

Very well done and thanks for the links. I just had to take the time to let you know how much I like your blog and I appreciate the time you take to make it so good. My "day job" is with computers and my passion is photography so I know a bit about both. I know that to create such a consistently good site you have to be spending a lot of time and effort. I appreciate it and always look forward to your new posts. I found you initially by using Google’s blog search but now I check directly by your url, one of the few that I remember off the top of my head. So from a regular reader, Thanks for all you do!
