paper or picture - ah, you've identified some sloppy writing! Good work! But from context here I'm sure he means a picture that he likes.

  • paper or picture - ah, you've identified some sloppy writing!
  • Good work!
  • But from context here I'm sure he means a picture that he likes.
  • "focus issues" - this might be almost a pun, implying that the editor is critcizing the content of his pictures as well as the technique, but I think it probably means that yes, she thinks his pictures are blurry.
