Two questions? Is this the same lone cross that you shot last year - or was 
it 
earlier this - tied to the tree? or at least the same location? And secondly 
did 
you crop it. Knowing the size of the crosses I would have thought that the 
Summitar wouldn't be performing that well thatclose.

All the best,

Peter
