Ever looking for that last crumb...since my first duck picture did SOOO well in the c score department..not!! I thought I might as well put this one in the pot while the water was hot and see if I might make a stew out of the two, if nothing else >>LOL<<

PJ, don't let the 'C-index killers' bother you as they did me. As long as there are people on the Caedes-site who don't realise that this site mainly is meant for amatateurs having lots of fun with their photo hobby and therefore the one post perhaps is better than the other, such things will exist. Straight from my heart I like to say you that to me your images are great! Hope that this will say more than a bad C-index score! Regards, Cornelius

C-score? You know... I never look at it! IMHO, the score doesn't really reflect if an image is good or not, and this one is excellent!
Well done!

Just going through some of your pics from before you were on my friends list. This one caught my eye. The richness and range of the browns in it are excellent. I hope you didn't stew her, she's too pretty!
