    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. :D

    Now if I could manage one of those "birdy shots" on the golf course, I'd have it made! Missed 5 birds last Saturday. :cry

    Very nice Ric, great head turn and catch light in the eye. It might need just a little boost in saturation and contrast.

    Hey, I only need catchy captions for not so great shots! rolleyes1.gif

    I am open to suggestions, however.

    I've been trying not to over do post work. (like I've done in the past)
