Yes, I've been thinking about that possibility before.
And as you know, setting a server is not a complete novelty to me. ;-)
I might go the route yuou suggested some day, but at this point, for the
project on hand, I am looking for something "off the self",
I also like the wide crop.
As an enhancement crop off the bottom 15-20%. That draws one's eyes to
something sharp as soon as they enter the image.

The section on the flash sync, while honest, really reads like an apology,
an admission of failure.
Otherwise, a nice set of fieatures.

Super image! The grain in front gets rather abstracted - find myself
getting lost in it. I don't mind the lens flare - actually I think it
adds to the dynamic nature of the image. The blown out area is a bit
large though. But the foreground textures are really fantastic.
