Hmmm. I've got a shot from our trip to Duxford. Front half of a P38 fighter plane, with the pilot looking out of the cockpit towards me. Zooming in, you can see the whole wing reflected in one lens of his mirror sunglasses. Maybe you need to take this example back. 8-) ----------------------------------------- Email sent from www.virginmedia.com/email Virus-checked using McAfee(R) Software and scanned for spam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
