This always mystifies me. I'm probably the toughest, certainly the most
persistent (as now), critic you have on the list.
But I don't recall questioning your judgment of the subtleties of lens
characteristics, camera color rendering or the
characteristics of B&W papers, etc.
Does it feel really good, safe somehow, to believe you have persistent critics
here of your opinions and descriptions of
these qualities.
I'll call you on BS pretty much every time (as now), and on technical errors;
after all, it's my responsibility to
straighten you out. :-) But I steer clear of technical issues where you are
expert. As to artistic judgment, I try to
be clear that our differences are of taste.
Artistically, I'd say you are a far tougher critic on yourself than most here.
