A bit late, but... Love the lake photo. It's got a great, dismal mood to it, if ya know what I mean. Love the inclusion of the bit of curved shoreline at the bottom - great touch. As for the lens, well, it is pretty, but I don't think I could use it for street shooting (unless I'm ~across~ the street <g>). And the car - yeah, well, I'll take a Mister 2 any time, although I have to admit, my heart's still with Miata. Why not a Caterham Super Seven? I bet it'd knock the socks off of anything that's been mentioned in this thread so far, and not cost a lot more (but I haven't checked lately). cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
