Okay, I got logged off, so lets try again. :)

I really love the look. The colors in the image are wonderful. It's hard to get a balance between the vintage look and the modern clothes and equipment. I think you did a great job in that.

SOOOOO glad that you got this shot of an awesome job done by your stepson. He's got to be so happy to have such a great capture of the event. Congrats to him too!! #1281808
