Quotethat is large,

I thought your camera had something like 3000 X 2000 pixels - that image is barely 800 x 1000 - What about a full size crop of the neck region so we can see all that detail...

.... uhhhh  :lol: :lol: :lol: Is that a Fay comment...

Well! that's where it deserves to be.
A great image Fay.

That's really wonderful and beautifully framed too.  I think anyone would be proud of that result Fay.
