Okay, seriously, that's a hell of a photo! A nit (and maybe it's just me, and believe me this is a teensy thing). I'd have cropped out the bottom of the shield of the state highway system at the top left. And I'd have either cropped out the S of Sacramento or left it in in it's entirety. I don't know if you've shown us full frame or not, so perhaps it's not possible to show us the whole "S". I also think that if you put the whole "S" in there it might wreck the balance of the pic, so really I think that cropping it out in it's entirety might be better. I hope you don't mind, but here's what I'm thinking: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EaTEtfR4WJw/SXjshVuyNwI/AAAAAAAAFFE/MKuEYs2WRTY/s1600-h/anything2.jpg Maybe I'm being too picky. It's a hell of a photo as you presented it!! cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
