  Thank you! Just found this pic hidden away somewhere while I was looking for something else, cropped it quite a lot and I too thought 'wow, not bad'! Glad you like it too!! Posted 12 years ago

    I was just typing away with Ferdy about the power of crop. This is a great example. No shame in cropping I say:) Posted 12 years ago
