:thumbup: I totally agree with the OP. I just figured that I would toss this out there as a simple conflict tool, but I am sure it could go a long way in C+C as well. Not that I think you should always have to be so delicate with people, but some food for thought. Its always good to use "I" instead of "You" in any type of conflict resolution.
Instead of:
"You shot this picture with the wrong settings, you didn't level the camera first, you cut half of the subjects head off in the frame..."
Try this:
"I think you shot this with the wrong settings, I notice the horizon is crooked, and I don't think the way the subjects head is cut off, works in this picture...."
I think people in general tend to be defensive when opening themselves up to people. Even the best of us sometimes catch ourselves trying to make excuses when we know we just flat out screwed up.
