					<description>To Bascha:

You are either an idiot of in love! I did not mention anything about porn or her ability to capture emotions. Most good photographers can do that. I will continue to say that she is overrated and arrogant! Great photographers (in my mind she ain't) don't have to pose their subjects they wait for the moment and sometimes they don't utter a word. Fashion photographers give instructions and encouragement! As a professional she should have respected the queen and not treat her like a commoner! You don't ask the queen to remove her hat!!! Annie would not dare go into certain counties and ask one of the women to remove her veil. The purist form of photography is when you photographed as natural as possible. When you photograph nature you don't change it {unless you do with photoshop or filters}YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT A PHOTOGRAPHER OR A VERY BAD ONE!!!!!!!!</description>

					<description>Give me a freaking break.  She's a photographer who specializes in portraits.  It's her job to turn a simple sitting into  a stunning photograph--one that will be remembered for all time. Her photos are iconic, in part /because/ she dares to take people that most would only kow-tow to and treats them in unexpected and delightful ways. 

Though it seems that you view those lovely photos (perhaps the Yoko and John nude bothers you?) as &quot;self-degrading.&quot;  Again--art is in the eye of the beholder.  And you can think that porn if you want, but to millions of people (myself included) that photo is a snapshot of something important in history, an indeliable image.

As to the Queen: How many people, when confronted by someone who is undoubtably an expert at what they do, would turn to that expert and demand to do it their own way?  Plenty would, surely, (maybe especially a Royal) but that doesn't make them in the right--it just means there's a lot of rude people in this world.  It's like going to your doctor and demanding he prescribe a particular drug, without actually examining you.  Why did you bother with the physician in the first place?

And, as you may have read by now, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.usatoday.com/life/people/2007-07-12-bbc-queen-apology_N.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;BBC has apologized&lt;/a&gt; for the comments it made regarding the Queen's sitting with Leibowitz. Apparently, she didn't storm out but merely balked at making changes to the difficult-to-endure outfit.  (I bet that cape and crown is heavy.)</description>

					<description>First of all Ms.Annie Liebowitz is a great Photographer but, so am I. There is no way you could compare her to Picasso or any of the great  Masters. She is overrated all the time (she has a good agent) she is selfish and arrogant to the bitter end. She beleives that people should allow her to photograph them in any position or self-degrading acts in order for her to think she acheive her goal. She blew her chance of ever photographing the Queen again. Who in the Hell does she think she is? The nerve to ask the queen to remove her crown. Most great photographers never pose anyone but allow the nature flow of an event. Most of her shots are staged. She acheived her fame from her PEOPLE!!!!!! I NO LONGER HAVE ANY RESPECT FOR THIS ARROGANT ##%$#.</description>
