    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!"

    Terrific! thumb.gifclap

    Is it possible to crop so that you could include the end of the bough?

    Thanks guys!

    Ric, that was a full framer, but here is another that has it all in the frame and that I've actually applied some sharpening to. Whatcha think of this one??

    I like 'em sharp! Having the whole pine bough makes it look complete. Very nice, Mike. :D
