    Or four letters and two characters. Well worn.

    Roger, I like this. you framed it very well. Looking good. If I had to find something to critic it would be that the focus seems to have been on the inside rim of the main tire whereas i would have liked to see the nearest tread the focal point. This is very minor, and really only a matter of personal pref. Great image.

    Hi Gary.

    Yes it is and I plan on going back there soon to re-shoot, this time with a mono/tripod as it was cold and frosty and early morning. I wasn't to happy with this straight out of the camera so this has had a lot of post work thanks to help from Leels and srobb on techniques in PSE/PSP and a lot of sharpening.

    It was taken at 1/15 at F3.5 ISO 50 hand held as a test shot.

    Now I have to wait for the weather to change, totaly wet here for the next few days.

    Tom,
    It looks like you have to add a message of 10 characters hence the original message and your characters are a much better title for this.

    Thanks for looking and glad everyone likes the composition.

    I think it will be a while before I get similar conditions, This was taken with a hoar frost on the ground and at the moment its warm so Humbug! Now I'm kicking myself for not having the tripod or monopod with me in the car. Mono pod now lives in the car.
