great shot

4/15/2006 3:49:04 AM

Hey, thank you all!!
The only real hard part is keeping what you decided to be the center in the center as you turn the camera...handheld that is.
Actually, last night I discovered a pint of Ben and Jerrys "Phish Food" icecream and got to bed a might later than normal....:-)
Bob

4/15/2006 6:13:32 AM

Or maybe Flower Frolic?

Bob

4/20/2006 8:02:30 PM

flower frolic is excellent! frolicing flowers might work too! (is that how frolicing is spelled?) I wanna put a "k" in there......oh well.......

4/20/2006 9:08:51 PM

Yup, if the word ends with a "C", add a "K" before the "ed" or "ing" or whatever.....:-)
