Mike,

Excellent shots! What clarity, vibrant colors and rich compositions! 8) My only nit is the spelling of "peloton", wich means the "pack", in (French) cycling terms. ;-)

 

[Backdoctor]

Money Makers!

Thanks Philippe I appreciate the kind words it was nice to get out and shoot. I love the colors out of the D2H. Thanks for the spelling lesson I can us about 10,000,000 more of them.

Now I don't mean to pick on you about spelling.. Lord knows I don't have a clue... :shock:

But you misspelled "which"...

Hi Dave,

You're absolutely right, darn it! I tend to forget the h in that spot, more than I'd like, and I usually catch it if I proof-read, but I didn't this time... Hey, I can blame that brain fart on English being my second language (even though I forgot more French than I have learned English!), can't I? :lol: I see that Mike edited the title of his pic already, so all is well. Thanks for setting me straight! ;-)

Thanks Philippe for pointing it out I corrected it right away. I am such a terrible speller that even the spell check function doesn't know what I type! :lol:
