"OK cue the boat and the fisherman. Boat skipper make sure you go slow to give the fisherman time to look like he's been there all day." And for the final touch? That's when you say..." OK God the cloud effects now! Not too much, just enough to create that nice soft English countryside look. :-) Meanwhile you stand back and wait, boat floats into right positon, God whiffs in the soft gentle light clouds, and you go click click! Producing another winning countryside pictorial master piece! ;-) ted
