Thanks. Ann cheated and looked at the other photos in the set, the link she posted shows them without the twist and zoom.

It could also be fun paired with a flash during portraits. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- 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.
