I don't know what word you were groping for, but I suggest "elucidate" was NOT the word you wanted. Check a dictionary. "elucidate" means "clarify" BugBear

"elucidate" means "clarify" Yes, clarify. I was hoping that someone would make my observation clearer by using the correct words/terminology for the effect I was trying to describe. This is for two reasons: the OP might take it seriously if it was worded correctly by someone else and I would like to understand how to correctly describe the elements of his photo that have inspired me so much. I would appreciate it greatly if someone assists me with this. -- Pete

It seems that you wanted someone to "expand on" your statement, not to clarify it. Your statement was perfectly lucid as written but you seemed to think it did not adequately describe the strong points of the photo. -- Tony Cooper - Orlando, Florida

No, because morons in alt.photography reply without removing the cross posting so pretty soon I'm reading alt.photography even without subscribing to it. In general, cross posted groups are very different in content and inhabitants from the groups I read. I don't want anything to do with them and resent someone who tries to change that. A post with a comma in the newsgroups header line is a sure sign of spam, a kook or a troll. -- Tom Hise

I guessed my statement wasn't lucid because of the struggle I had putting my sentiments into words. Yes, I would like someone to expand on my statement. -- Pete |
