Hi Barrie,

I love this shot. Well done for spotting something different!

My only small nit is the way the eye browes? come over that lovely big eye, but not alot to be done about that. I wish I could produce images this good when bored :rolleyes:

Regards

Rob

Definately different Barry.
Makes me want o go out and try for something out of the ordinary as well
Also nice to see you have toned down your copywright symbol.
Have you tried reducing the opacity, to tone it down even more.

Yes, I like it too.
Horrible flies they are to both horses and people. It does hurt when they bite/sting and they land so softly that you can hardly feel it.
