Don't waste time thinking about things, what motivates you, click without thought. If it twitches your gut feeling there must be something there making you feel it....... "SO SHOOT IT!" :-) My complete interest was on the two Mounties and the model and everything else was just a blur other than the Arc de Triomphe which I was tryng to keep squared away as the main Paris background! :-) cheers, ted
