You know the story about trying to teach a pig to sing, the pig just gets angry and you get dirty. If he is doing well, best wishes to him, and the rest of us that read what you write we wouldn't want you to change a thing.

I'm sure by now this is no longer "under your skin" (if it really ever was). Thanks for all your great work. Saw you lecture back in the spring at a Washington, DC ASMP meeting. Great stuff. I would recommend attending any of Leslie's lectures highly to any and all photographers/creatives.. or anyone that works for a living. The advice is well.. just human, sane and real. Best, Forrest Leslie,

People can get so much further if they follow this advice (and I include myself in that group - I'm always working on listening to disapproval and disagreement with a more open mind).

Why else would he get so emotional? IMHO, it takes a solid level of maturity and confidence to absorb contrary opinions. "On-Set" is one of the hardest places to be when dissenting opinions are expressed don't you agree? I'll bet your guy in question is a terror to work with.
