.. not sure how I could have missed this but it is a great one for the topic and you did a really nice job. Good thinking! And welcome (I don't think I missed that part, but better to be safe than sorry) Penny Street

Makes me think of the time when it wasn't so. Now too close to real. Makes me squint to no avail. -tv

Sharp idea for our out of focus topic. Looks like we are going to like having you around. -Doug

I would have just cheated, no one would know:-) The picy is great for the topic John so no further work is needed. If you have a look through the comments you will see our lazy host Bwuce only comments on the very best picys & he commented on your picy, you now have a reputation to live up too, or isit to:-)

sorry Rod (called you Roy) but The keep in perspective part was the charts appearance not your answer lol John
ctfchallenge16-Feb-2009 04:39
Roy, I agree with you about having one line in focus, but without using photoshop(as was asked in the guidelines) the only way I could think of accomplishing that would be a very narrow depth of field and laying the chart down on a flat surface, I think that would have taken away from being easily recognized as an eye chart, I am more than eager to hear and learn how this could have been done and keep it in perspective.
Thanks John

Good one so is this 5/5 vision ?
Rod 16-Feb-2009 00:11
I think it would fit the topic better & look a bit more clever if the top G was sharp a...........Or maybe just the bottom line sharp...........yes that's it.
Bruce T Jones16-Feb-2009 00:03
Very clever. I like it!
