Very nice, Mary Anne, indeed: the "Centred Composition" of the crop works here perfectly for me. -- db.

I should mention that I had to crop in order to get "Bisonboy" centered. Here's a link to a larger view: http://www.pbase.com/maryanne16/image/92928971

Thanks, Mikey. You're right about the bison...this was shot at the annual Buffalo Roundup. This was shot hand-held at a great distance, and since I couldn't get the color and sharpness where I wanted them, I decided to go for the old-timey look. I'm glad you like it.

It took me a while to figure out what I was seeing in the foreground, Mary Anne. He really ought to be a Bisonboy, ha! The treatment gives this an antique feeling. I like it. Cheers, -mikey
