You and me both Jo :( Thx for the support though! As I've said in the past, yes a high mark is great but long term value is derived from the reaction via comments for me.

Really nice, wish the boy had a brighter colour top on. I feel it would've been a lot better then, but maybe you wished for him to blend into the rocks. Never the less good photo.
