Is there really such a thing as straight photography?

It certainly seems there is. Ever since the advent of photography there has been a rift amongst practioners of so called pure photography vs. the so called practioners of soft focus/manipulated photography. On one side of the fence resides your Ansel Adams types, and on the other side Jerry Uelsman types. Although one would assume that the manipulator would spend more time in the darkroom(or behind the computer) you will find that zone system photographers or self described straight photographers spend equal if not more time in the darkroom. The question I am trying to get at is that isnt all photography a manipulation of reality in that the human eye and the camera are not a 1:1 basis and that straight should not equate or be assumed as reality. One only needs to look at the original negatives of moonrise over hernandez and the various printed renditions of the aforementioned negative to see that there is a disparity between reality, camera reality and human imagination.

"Professional". Say your doing photographs for ppl for $20 around town and you have a ad. No schooling. Are you still an amatuer?

Strip for photographer to "get to know me"?

Like many other girls out there, I have been trying my luck in modelling and so far, i have had several casting calls which some of them i did attend but they selected someone better. Anyway, recently, I was contacted by this photographer who saw my photos online, and he was interested in making me one of his personal models. He said I would have to pay nothing and he will shoot my portfolio and promote me to clients.

However, he did mention that he may need to see me in a bikini to know my weaknesses and flaws on my body.He promised me that no photos will be taken and it will just take a couple of minutes. The main reason, he says, is so that he knows my size well so that it's easier for him to introduce me to clients. He also says that a model should work closely for a photographer.

If i'm offered any jobs, he says that he will take 40% of whatever I earn.

Should I accept this offer?

In the 14th century how long would it take for ships to sail from Constantinople(or Kaffa) to an Italian city?

I was wondering how long it would take for merchant ships to go from Constantinople or Kaffa to an Italian city. This in regards to an investigation about the time it took to spread the plague. I am also interested in navigational times - so if you know any medieval navigational times please post them...

few Qs about HP 7 !!! "spoiler alert"?

1. Did Dumbledore actually become the Master of Death ??
Is this why they were talking in The Deathly Hallows ...after Harry "died"??

2. on page 715, Harry said Dumblefore 'd given uplooking for the Hallows when he saw the Cloak ...
Why had he given up..??
I know that later Dumbledore said he should not possess things with power...
But why did Harry come to this conclusion before Dumbledore explained?

3. Was the Resurrection Stone on the ring that became a Horcrux or what?

Didnt Dumbledore find both things at Guant's hut ?
If so, how did Dumbledore crack the ring without destroying the stone ?

4. Another question about the Snitch... How did Harry realize what to say to open it when he was on the way to the Forest?
