Thanks.  I always love your stuff.  The owl may have been far away but I 
can still see some downy looking feathers billowing on his back.  Nice job.

I was looking to see if you had a 4 seasons presentation of the Pemaquid 
lighthouse.  I think you could make a very salable 4 shot arrangement 
shot from the same location in spring, summer, fall and winter.  Or 
maybe not.  Maybe you can't tell the difference between spring summer 
and fall.  Just a thought.
