Well, the new rotated image everyone is now enjoying ;-) - is pretty well full frame after rotation and crop. I think there's more beach in fact I had to clone out some garbage there that I'd cropped from the first image. I was enjoying making a slimmer landscape image on the first one, getting rid of garbage while getting away from the 2:3 for once, likely why I forgot to examine closely for a horizon ;-) Apologies to all for the posting of an image to the list. Andy, no need to substitute that image now I guess ... Now as to the fishing gear, these guys are just gear heads. I mean most fishermen don't wear anything fancy but these guys obviously enjoy playing the part fully with traditional garb. Keeps some blowing sand out of your face while keeping some sun off your head is my guess. I left the rod in the corner as a kind of sign to show they were fishing, kind of liked it not fully there but enough to recognize. Bob is right again, cropping or cloning it out would have made some real mystery of the image. Oh well, live and learn is what this is all about. -- Jim Davis, http://easternbeaver.com/
