    I'd definately say it was worth it, that is one incredibly beautiful shot. Did you use a polarizer to get the glare off the water, or...?
    Thanks for sharing this!!! clap.gif

    I kinda second that, provided she's in the trunk:-) On the other hand, I can pretend I'm driving and do not listen..:-) OTOH, I heard some stories about jewish MILs :-), so I'm not so sure:-)
    Cheers, Nir!
