Hi Cotty, It was a 6x7 with the 105/2.4 lens. Just a quicky. I couldn't park there for very long, so I took a meter reading down the block with an incident meter. Parked the car, hopped out, and shot. The yellow curbs are reflecting in the grille. I don't like that. I'm going to go back and do it again when the theater marquis lights are on at twilight. I'll bring a monopod and an assistant with a white reflector. I'll have him lay the reflector over the foreground yellow curb. I can always take it out in PhotoShop. Paul
