Dr. Ted

Again, thank you for commenting on my work so kindly.

You have described exactly how I work. It is so often serendipity, the 
chance gestrure, the unseen element which goes unnoticed.
I will if I may cite to examples:

?Dick Head? - at no stage did I see the sign until I edited on the computer 
and yet it is perfectly positioned, and the image gained me recognition by 
LFI. It was purely by a chance invite I was even at the bikers event.

?Looking for directions? - the link between the writing on the wall and the 
laptop pose was again not spotted until it was on the screen.

I have been doing this type of thing, and looking at the great work of 
others, for about 60 years now so I suppose something is bound to sink in 
occasionally.

Thanks again,

Gerry
