Why is it that in photography we must write RAW instead of raw? Does the word really need such emphasis? as if being yelled at us.
"Oh so you use jpg files, you fool, use RAW".

It's been a while since I have taken pictures of strangers, it took me a very long time just to get the courage to lift the camera. Then the friendly local camera store let me borrow a new Leica 18mm and a Zeiss 18mm as well. I had to shoot to get the feel of the 2 lenses, there was no dawdling. Suddenly I was back, not caring who looked and who didn't. So once I got my lens back and thanked the salesman I was happy to point and shoot at people with a lot less dread.
