    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!"

    Very nice, Troy. You got a clear shot, you got him to pose just right, you got the lighting just right, you set up your background just right for the smoooooth bokeh, you captured every tiny detail sharply. thumb.gif I can't think of anything you missed. You get an "A". :D Seriously, you must have learned well. Great job.thumb.gif
