Hi Paul,
"Move over Ansel there's a new kid on the Block!" ;-)

Absolutely beautiful fine art photography if ever there was! I shoot very 
little of these type of scenic's. But I can only offer with humility... "I 
absolutely wish I had taken these!" No question "The Power of B&W!"

>>Sun over Lake Ediza was 15 frames -- two rows of 7 plus one for the 
>>sun.<<<<<
Are you saying this photo is a combination of 15 frames stitched in camera 
or Photoshop of some kind?

Me not the techie type as most of you know. But when such a magnificent 
image such as this is shown with the quote: >>Sun over Lake Ediza was 15 
frames -- two rows of 7 plus one for the sun.<<<<

It's most intriguing shooting it as I imagine? .... "one frame after another 
over lapping in two rows?" If you have the time would you please explain 
your description of how it was accomplished without any appearance of 
over-lapping anywhere. If that is the case? An amazing photograph!

Thank you very much.
cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
