Thanks, Bruce! I think 6242 was my favorite in the bunch, too. If Kentucky has anything, it's horses -- and Bourbon and basketball, but mostly horses. :-) -- Walt On 4/1/2012 4:55 AM, Bruce Walker wrote: I really like the movement and engagement of 6242 (horses). Love 6242 too (horses

Walt, That's a very nice start for the K-20. I particularly liked the horse, barn, yellow blossom, and dog catching the McNugget(?). The very green grass is contributing to the impact of those photos. You've got to work on the barn more. Regards, Bob S. On Sat, Mar 31, 2012 at 10:54 PM, Walt

Thank you, Bob! I have to admit I was really satisfied with the results given it was the first time I've ever used the thing. I'm sure I'll get plenty more opportunities to work that barn. The dog is actually catching BBQ-flavored pork skins. I'm still really happy that I was able to get
