very nice, should have scored better. I will remember for future pics, outside the box won't score well, but it doesn't make the image any less compelling.

Another one that was TOTALLY under-rated. Maybe some people just didn't like to see the 'seed' that may be growing inside them? Thanks again for your boldness of playing outside the box.

Take care,
Brad
