Butch Getz General Nice set of ex-blue beasts....and love the matching numberboards! 9/5/2013 4:05:17 PM
William H. Davis Jr. General That it is, in cases as rare as this I don't let mis matching number boards keep me from getting a photo, worse comes to worse you can always fix it using photoshop 9/5/2013 4:35:58 PM
TERRENCE ROBLE General A very good photo, excellent lighting too!!! 9/8/2013 8:38:12 PM
William H. Davis Jr. General Thanks, perfect lighting is what I prefer with each photo I take, but you can't have perfect light all the time, but as long as I have decent lighting such as half light on the nose & enough side light I will still take it, in times of extreme high sun I will take an overhead photo which helps to where you can get an angle to hide the side light going away & do more of a head on nose photo 9/8/2013 9:07:14 PM
