Wanted to say thanks. 58 comments! Wow! I guess I got the idea across!
That's about as good as ribboning, to me :-) (I think, I havn't got a ribbon yet, so I'm not sure :-P)
And thanks to my bud Toocool for going above and beyond the call of duty and modeling for me on the shot. We had to lug all the gear down through the rocks and under the boardwalk. Then he wore that heavy shirt, and smeared the make-up all over face arms and chest. And while we were shooting, there were a bunch of people just off to the left fishing, and I think they were quite amused and thought we were crazy!
So, thanks TC, and thanks to all who commented and liked the shot :-)
Haha! How I wish *I* had a DPC shooting buddy nearby... It's lonely here sometimes :-(

Robert I would happily travel the 5000 odd miles to be your shooting buddy for a while. What a lot I would learn and what fun you would have trying to understand my accent! :-)
Seriously, you are a great photographer in a neat part of the US, well worth travelling to!

PS - on thread - the troll photo had me ROFLMAO - wonderful!
I just figured out the core elements of the programs that trolls use to vote. It goes something like this:
main()
..firstVote := getInitialVote();
..case firstVote of:
...0: begin
....print("Excellent score - you are a true troll!");
....finalScore := firstVote;
...end
...1: begin
....print("You are close to troll-dom: persevere!");
....finalScore := 0;
...end
...2: begin
......print("You have much to learn! You are not yet a true troll!")
......finalScore := 0;
...end
...3 - 5: begin
.....print("You will never make a troll with this kind of attitude!");
.....finalScore := 0;
...end
...6 - 8: begin
.....print("You can only dream of troll-dom - begone!");
.....finalScore := 0;
...end
...9 - 10: begin
.....print("You are no troll: you are a vote fairy! Die, vile scum!");
.....finalScore := 0;
...end
..endcase
end.
OK, its late and I am in need of some rest but this really seemed funny at the time...
