Ted,

Praise from you is always an honour, and you kind Sir have truly honoured 
me. I really appreciate your comments, I truly felt that b&w was the only 
way to go on this and shooting film gave it a personal impetus that I don?t 
think I would have had in digital. It is a gritty subject and it needed a 
gritty rendition IMHO.

Kindest regards and thanks,

Gerry
