Thanks for the detail Dag, it's informative to learn how other photogs images arise. It's great to hear that the shot that you were most pleased with was full frame too, I prefer not to crop but shooting panos a lot these days the final composite output doesn't always provide the angle of view intended so I have learnt to crop. When I have a kid around I tend to only end up with kid pics, too distracting keeping an eye on them and some abstract subject ;-) Cheers, -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
