Yes, I'm with you Valarie. Wish we could get in there and get a good-luck rub of hair. He looks like he's thinking about an itchy elbow. A beautiful photo showing fine detail in a dark face, and great texture in that blonde hair. All that coupled with your perfect comp spells winner. #8097292Carol L. Fowler November 02, 2009
