That makes sense.  I could see doing just that...click the exposure and then
worry about the WB later when there's time.  I may need an expodisc to play
around with now.  :)

And I could have sworn I commented on this, but I don't see it in my reply
above.  So I must have been thinking it...

Wonderful!  Very nicely done.  I'm usually not a fan of the gratuitous tilt,
but I like it in this case.  Everything comes together perfectly.  Your
camera sure does take purty pictures.  :)
