Glad you like 'em so much.

Yeah, I agree, it would look better dropped a few inches. But alas, I am only the photographer.

That's a valid point; and I'm not entirely sure.

But thank you! I am glad you enjoyed the series.

Great pics! I'm assuming that the CL was a non-sports package that got the Lorinser treatment later?
