The photograph prints themselves have nothing on them at all that speaks either way. If someone likes an image and really wants to buy it then only crackpots from the other side would not buy it on principle?

I hear what you are saying mate and appreciate you are trying to help, but as important as compromise usually is with my way of working with people, compromising my faith for a buck is not on the table. Lose money because of it? So be it.
Works for Ken Duncan, one of the most successful Photographers in Australia. He has his faith plastered all over his website.
Again, I am not trying to argue as I respect everyone's choices. Your advice is noted and appreciated Mike (I mean that).
