Ok, you have lost me with the title. The image seems a bit busy to me, but again, I'm not quite sure what I am looking at based on the title. Appears to be a snap of two riders taking a break. You're going to have to fill me in just a bit more. Bruce Wednesday, November 10, 2004, 3:57:45 PM,

Hi Frank ... I'll agree with Bruce about the business. That the one fellow has his head down doesn't add anything to the pic, and may well detract from it. Far from one of your best ... sorry can't muster any enthusiasm for this one. Shel From: frank theriault [EMAIL PROTECTED]

i find this photo much more enjoyable now that I know what clear at the can means. Sometimes words and photos work together to tell a better story than either can relate on their own. This is one of those times. Thanks for explaining this scenario. In that context, I find it very interesting.
