That is, after all, the reason for this site. It's also great to share the works of others here for a change. The Flickr Pool was a great addition, I think. Little slow right now, but I'm looking forward to it's potential down the line.Meanwhile, I also just learned that smileys actually work on this site. I never knew. :) ;) By all means.

As for filling the frame -- when I was reviewing my photos from that day, I actually had three different shots (which I kept) of this chair. The other two were farther away, and although they showed more of the structure, I decided that this one was the best for bringing you right up and in to the subject. It's easy to try to "get it all in" and sometimes you have to force yourself to look closer.Oh, and this is also a great example for your "photographers are funny" article. I was twisted all around on the ground, trying to get just the right show, shielding my eyes from the bright sunlight... and of course I looked up at one point and find my parents standing there, looking at me with some curious expressions -- "our son is doing WHAT??" (This is a chair that my dad was refinishing while I was visiting them.)Thanks again! :) Wow, thanks so much! :) I really appreciate your review/critique.
