| wim commented on 04.19.06 | | no offense, but I presule you are right. I do respect things people throw away, and try to revalue them somehow. I try in an artistic way, but it will take me several years to get my point through. Poverty should be banned, and as citizen of a relatively rich european country it is hard to understand why wealth is not an equaliser. |

This is a light-hearted place it seems, so the use of a title as serious as "Mr." has less to do with life experience or presumed authority than a way of being light-hearted about how we both, for some reason, take other peoples' trash very seriously. I especially appreciate a real fine mess, and it is better if it is well photographed. The use or Mr., simply put, is because I respect your extraordinary effort overall and this photography specifically. |

| wim commented on 04.18.06 | | as we are more or less the same age, I can only hope you are against all form of authority (except your own of course), as I am (execp my own of course) |

| color01569 commented on 04.18.06 | | Yes, sir. No more "Mister!" |

| wim commented on 04.18.06 | | just forget the Mister thing, we are all equals in rights |

| color01569 commented on 04.18.06 | | I guess we're all professionals at something, one way or another. (For many years, dishwashing was my profession. Then warehouse work.) With photography, I'm very much an amateur. With mattresses, Mr. Rutten, I am very much a "Nicky-New-Guy." I have a yen to learn, though, from the veterans. |
