The composition works even better with the text, and it's a privilege to see both version. <BR/><BR/>btw. i just read your comment on anonymous. sorry about your school and the printshop.<BR/><BR/>I wish freezing weather was more of a novelty here, but is very pretty. Winter is fun time for most Newfoundlanders, but I'm more of a summer person by nature. I think fall is the most romantic time of year, and its a pity it didn't last a little longer.

I love the bottom one; I can't believe so many people actually do that:> The top one made me think of our neighbor's driveway that develped a waist-deep, 3' wide gully ysterday after all the rain we've been having.
