Cheers, Marc Marc, The first two are magnificent. Visually beautiful, wonderful texture in both. In "Afraid", extraordinary range of values without loss of shadow detail or burned highlights, placing her eyes in dark shadow, but bringing out her frowning brows, and the faint catch lights in her eyes. I'm way behind with comments but I had to answer these. The third one, I may be too sleepy, but on my screen I can't find him. I still like it. :-) -- Charlie Falke _____ /\ | __/\__/------/__) |(____\/_________/ "One test result is worth | |/ `o one thousand expert opinions" - Wernher Von Braun 0 N4003M "Imagination is more important than knowledge" - Albert Einstein ------ >-- Regards YXAndy
