Chris..a excellent shot - I think you captured his work, his personality, and his work environment..looks great. :) Congratulations. My best, Phyllis
Chris Dixon  Phyllis,

thanks...and I must add that this would not be here without your comments and suggestions of its earlier version in "Critique". One of the strengths of 1x is the support from everyone.

Cheers Chris
Phyllis Clarke  Thank you for you kindness and I agree about the support at One X totally. I have to add though...that it was your capture that made for a great shot. Glad to see one of yours here! :))) And..have to say that you have been a super support for me too. Phyl

this is super Chris, great picture.
Chris Dixon  Ricky,

glad you like it. It took a bit of work from my original and I must thank the people in "Critique" of the colour version and then some guidance in doing the B&W stuff to get here.

Thanks again

Cheers Chris
