Jack, Of course, it really doesn't work for me once you point it out. :-) I fell in love with the composition and overlooked the softness. This is a full frame from the A300/4 at it's close focus limits. I have other shots in better focus, but different composition. It's amazng to me how poor a critic of my own work I am. Comments like your really help me. Thanks again, Bob S.
