          Good morning all.
          Count looks correct and thanks.
          I had no intention of making my bike look like a toy, I just wanted a huge shadow, but after Roger mentioned it I can't see it any other way. I posted it on a FB group I'm on that features an autistic teen who does lifelike photos of model cars. People thought it was model to the point of asking for proof....

          Going thru pics now. Be back shortly.

                I wonder what's more challenging, making a model look real or making the real deal look like a model. Id say the latter.

                        Bit of lens shift with a set of bellows and you can make anything look toy-like.

                          Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.
