Thank's for all the kind words on the other shot. I hope you don't mind the change up.

Just when we thought you had gone away for ever (from this site), you come back with this masterpiece to challenge us again.

They don't get much better than this.

Cheers. Bill

Welcome back Mike ... not sure why, but you being here makes me smile and makes me want to jump back in too! Nice entry ~ incredible set up too!

Hi Mike,

Hey guys!! Thanks’ for the warm welcome back. It's great to see you all. I’ve missed you.

Fabulous shot, Mike!! (But then that almost goes without saying! ) Welcome back. It's been way too long. I need to give yo a call so we can catch up on how thing are going. Now that you're here it's probably pointless for me to try to shoot something this week. but you never know, I may stumble across something.

Anyway, welcome back, old friend!

Warm regards,

Endre

Hey guys! Thank you. I don't mean to be short. I'm really tired. Just finished posting a replacement shot. I wanted to give a little more effort. I hope you guys like it. I'm afraid i'm a bit rusty.

That is rusty? O.K. When you rub it off, send it to me. I'll put it to good use.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Awesome image, Mike!

Reminds me of Bobby Fisher *and* Ray Charles. No mean feat.

Huh! That is stunning. Very nicely conceived and executed - but I guess we all expect that of you, eh?

Hi Mike,

I really like this second shot. It has much more of your style. Great work.

I like it even more. It represents your style a bit better to me in my opinion

Steve R

I like the second take more too - the first shot has that fun novelty factor, but like the Steves were saying, this one has more style.

Pretty cool looking shot.

marty

I like this shot much better. This is just cool. Great idea and well done.

Do you have any bad shots to show us?
