Couldn't agree more have been caught out several times thinking something is true when it isn't.

Re: Stage Managed

The days of "the camera never lies" have gone, many photos these days are indeed SM that is why I still to wildlife.
But digital has given folks wonderful shots of which they wouldn't have done on film, so I am for and against.
These birds just wouldn't stand still, no Spitty not humans.

Not if you are aware of it Spitty, it's all done with mirrors now, Hollywood style, and once you know it's all a false front you know all the dirt is hidden behind it. In politics especially, the humble politician of yonder years, no matter how brilliant he was would not be even considered to stand for the party today, the days of Michael Foot in his anorak are long gone, plastic faced well educated tailor's dummies are the order of the day and the first choice of the men behind the scenes in the political parties, "Get-the-image-right" and you are away in a hack, that's the political recipe for success now.
