Hi PeggySue,

LOL, thank you for getting rid of that last post. The problem I have with this version of UBB Threads is that it does not always allow you to delete just the last post in a thread...so I can edit what was said but not just that one piece (not the use of the word 'always'.)

As to the photographs, I apologize that I did not respond earlier. I definitely looked at it once and then it fell back out of my conciousness, so thank you for re-posting. My wife and I were both looking at the images - and agree on the following statements:

(1) All of the images looked very well photographed and exposed perfectly. As the first three are of the dogs 'doing what they were doing' it is hard to judge there composition in the same way that I would judge the horse.

(2) As action shots go, they came out very well. Small knit picks - ideally the puppy would have had his head forward, but LOL, good luck telling him that. I know that it is not realistic The third of that series is by far my favorite. You really caught the fellow.

(3) The horse portrait is phenominal. I love the composition as well as how it was exposed. I really like the way the composition goes from natural light to deep shadow - did you help it along?

Last, as to where Tony is, he sent me an e-mail recently. He has been off on the road and will hopefully come back soon. His presence is definitely missed.
