Will see if the opportunity arise next time. I particularly like the possibly images of "Bubbles sharp in front end people out of focus in back." I forgot to mention that this picture was from last year as Solstice 2005 isn't here yet :-) Unfortunately, we will be in the cold white East comes Solstice (NYC, in fact) this year. I am sure that will present lots of picture taking opportunities as well. // richard (This email is for mailing lists. To reach me directly, please use richard at imagecraft.com)
