    The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking. - Brook Atkinson- 1951

    Well, what can I say. It's my kind of picture too. Inner city. Textured wall. Graffiti (yes!!!), wheels.

    What's not to like?

    PS - On my screen it lacks some contrast - which I like to see in this type of shot. Given the computer I am working with at the moment, I can't say for sure that I would add some vibrance and perhaps some more clairity to this one, but I suspect that I would.

    Thanks for the thumbs up, and yes, it's somewhat flat. I've already bumped it up some. Taking it up further loses detail I wanted to keep. I am constantly amazed of what I can get out of the Blackberry camera - which is vastly inferior to the latest iPhone's camera - but I am also often disappointed when I use it because I don't have a real camera with me, rather than when I use it by choice.

    lol.... not one bit! Think of it as an endearing term.

    ...actually, I've been toying around with the idea of a scooter. I ride something a bit, uh.... bigger.

    I have a serious case of BMW envy - though I don't know that I'd set out to cover 100K miles. rolleyes1.gif

    They're great bikes... I'm at 117K miles now on them. The yellow one in the slideshow just rolled 81K today.
