How is that relevant to a scene which has no surfaces at such an angle where the
camera would
be visible in it's current position?
And I don't understand the relevance of the 'this is a photo' comment, when Denis
makes it
quite clear that this image is about as far removed as one can get from 'the finished
article'.

Were you by chance replying to some other thread? If so, please ignore the above :-)

All the best,
