Being a pro photographer, it's usually the holder of the camera But dont
fret ... I take most of my "working on the car photos" with a point-n-shoot
because it's too difficult to hold a "35mm digital" body with lens and take
photos, while you're working on the car. With the point-n-shoots, you have
to have a VERY still hand, which many of us dont.

Dont fret, because the photos are OK and we get to see your progress!!!
Keep up the great work - many wish to be where you are !!
