Cool! All sounds very familiar!

I agree with digital making for lazy composition; I was shooting some pics of the lovely Karen at Uffington Castle, and suddenly went mad in a kind of David Hockney montage way. Which was bloody pointless, as I dumped all the crappily compositioned ones as soon as we downloaded them at home!

I am increasingly setting myself the target of doing *all* my composition in the viewfinder, then printing the full neg, with a bleed. It makes me feel very smug. :o)

To make an 8 by 10 print, I too have to live without cropping, I can't imagine what size a sensor a digicam would need to be able to forego the need for full-frame composition!

the beauty of digital is you can do just that - take a load of pics - see if any are duff, re-take if theres time or composite from the rest to come up with a 'perfect' shot. I'm too impatient to be pedantic!
