Thanks Bruce. I guess that one is the keeper. I liked the gradient too, not an equal amount of light all the way down. Thanks for looking.
Marnie the almost akaless ---------------------------------------- Very nice texture and light, #1 especially so. #1 works much better for me because of the dead leaves giving my eyes something to rest on. I guess I also find the light gradient from the top to be more restful. -bmw --------------------------- Heh. Thanks Brian. Never occurred to me someone would think they are slugs. Actually that is my favorite. They are curled dead leaves. I suppose a closer shot/crop would show that more effectively. Sometimes I just can't figure out how big to resize my photos for web viewing. They usually seem to come out too small. It was early morning light, not a time I usually shoot, and I liked its softness.
