Even if they are ducks. They also give a perspective one can have a better feeling of the reflection. I also think the slightly wider angle on the scene itself is a better composition. ted Ted Grant Photography Limited www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant > > The flag was huge, maybe 150ft. stretched between two big crane trucks on the East > Bank of the Cane River. > > Regards, > > Sonny > http://www.sonc.com > > y > > > -- > To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
