First time post - and it's only taken me 2 hours to work out how to do it!!!
I hope it has worked OK.:dunno

Anyway, shot was taken with a Canon 450D with the standard 18-55mm kit lens. I would appreciate some C&C. Having been looking through the DGRIN posts for the last couple of weeks I have a lot to learn.

Cheers, Richard.

    Hi Bob & Tim,

    Thanks for your welcome and feedback - with regard to having the image larger - any suggestions on how to do it? As I said at the begining - after two hours of failed attempts to get it posted - I was happy just to get it there. Technology really does make life easier !! headscratch.gif

    Cheers, Richard.

    Guess what - worked it out !!clap.gif
