But because this tilt down is a common error "WE ALL MAKE!" Me included. And if you don't think I make it, you should be around here when Sandy Carter my associate is editing a shoot! :-) Hell on earth is nothing like a woman editor when you make "simple mistakes!":-) I like both frames Nathan, certainly the "hand action" for the communication aspect rather than just sitting there looking at the birdie. ted Ted Grant Photography Limited www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
