I agree that the potential elements are in place for something really really cool. This image is not that. The whole problem I had last night was that an advancing human with camera on tripod caused most (if not all) of them to leave. In a hurry - LOUDLY! This shot was taken 3 blocks from where I started trying to photograph them (and from about a block away). They had all originally been tightly-knit in 6 small trees on one corner of a block. Soon as I started walking towards them POOF they were gone. So... I'll have to keep working on 'em. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - charl...@visi.com Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- 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.
