Oh you lucky sweetheart!!! :-)
As I was just about to, shall we say, "chastise you" ;-) for making a
crooked cropped photograph when your response to JB came across the screen.
Yep that close! So this is yer lucky day you sweet charming southern belle.
:-) :-)

Not to forget the luck involved to shoot the last frame to clear the roll
and hit this shot, crooked or otherwise, as there's editors out there in the
cold cruel world who'd have wet knickers of excitement over the crooked
angle.!:-)

I should be so lucky, as my clear camera frames are usually feet, shoes or
someone's derrière! ;-) Unintentionally of course. :-)
