Hi J.Andrew,
I like the haiku, and surprise myself by preferring your 'on the field' to the more obvious 'in the field'.
Is there any chance of lightening up the picture just a tad, or is that to tease us even more, along with that danged whippoorwill? (-;
I really like the font, which looks even better within the larger size picture.
Andrew,
Very nice, especially with the night photo giving it atmosphere.
Very nice Andrew!
Sangeet
thank you all --
alan - I actually spent time debating whether to say "in" or "on" :) - "on" was more affective for what I wanted -- also, the photo is from my back yard and really didn't come out very clear - just as well, though, since I like the foggy look of it.
oh, I forgot to say -- when I really decided on "on" it was too late for the photo! I need to wait next time, don't I?
