thanks to all of you for your input! I've dl'd all of your variations to look at easier. eartho, I really don't know if I'm making a statment with the picture or just making eye candy, I guess that is left to the viewer to interpret in their own way. I haven't ever tried to consider the philosophy of photography, although I guess like anything else, a picture can indeed make a statement (the Pulitzer prize picture of the little Vietnamese girl who had her clothes burned off by napalm comes to mind) whether the photographer intended it to. Me I guess till I really learn what I'm doing, I'm just making pretty pictures. I do appreciate everybody's input. That's why I joined this group, to learn all I can about photography. Thanks all!
