    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks Harry and Pam. Harry you know that the 1,000 pound models don't take direction well, so you shoot what they give you! Ha

    Very nice, Bob.

    I would try and darken the bright grass and maybe selectively sharpen the frosty areas to make it more readily apparent.
