Jordy, 1) Good point on the candid shots with an auto everything point and run camera. I'll remember that. 2) In the last 72 hours? Hardly. More like SINCE 1972....sigh 3) Good point on the "wrong" flake movement. All I did was selective contrast adjustments. I think that even though the snow was slight, it was very windy, so they could have been blowing up at the time of the shot. Good eye! marshall
