Hi Ted mon ami,

Thank you very much!  you made me see that the photographer?s ability shall 
communicate the feelings, the emotion ? without further explanations, if the 
pictures need these explanations? as Hamlet says ?. ?something is wrong in 
Denmark??.

Thank you very much my friend!

Cheers
LLuis
