    Thanks guys, for voting, :smt023, as well as for appreciating this picture! :D
    The picture actually came out so well that I myself was a bit surprised! :cool:

    This picture of the month award was always eluding me ever since I became a member over here (way back in 2010)... :snicker:
    However now I seem to have bagged it alright, I actually had an inkling that this time it would happen for me, (see that thread)!!! :chuckle: :rofl::smt044

    It is however really funny, that whenever you properly take the time, calculate all the light angles, and carefully measure the camera's settings - The picture is always still lacking something... But take a quick snap without much thinking, and the results are ALWAYS amazing! :eek:

    Now why is that I wonder??? :whistling:

    Anyhow, I'm changing my avatar to this picture now! :smt045

    You know what guys? I think I'm going to print out this picture (along with the web address of this page) - And put it in the letterbox of that house, along with a thank you note, for taking such good care of their tree... You never known, we just might get a new member from my area! :cool:
