I also have a long interest in photography. The problem is that I have  
an even stronger interest in my Galoot stuff, so I just take my stuff  
out into the sun, or open shade sometimes, and shoot a picture. I ain't  
selling anything, so what you see is what you get.

I just don't want to give the time to photography that I know I should.  
Most galoots probably have the same problem.
