'Eeees done it again!!!!

The closeness is good mate. Its the lighting that is making these so nice. Few hot lines in here but i think it adds to the image. big guy you are doing bloody well mate and i'm proud of ya. I have total admiration of these images and i'm sure Bev (our Guru) will echo my applause.

Pm'd you but i think its this one you were on about. secret is manual focus, preparation, and attention to the detail. My type of photography i think, however some of my other images have good reviews so i dont know. 6mths ago hadnt took a serious shot so thanks for the comments TCO.
