Thumbs Up

@Namaki: Namaki, Thanks for your thoughts and I welcome your critique. Of course all things come down to a matter of choice and taste and I respect yours. I see no problem with noise in some images. It brings me back to the old days of film when I was a kid and would shoot with highly sensitive film. I guess those who grew up with the digital scene have more of a problem with noise as they prefer the crisp and and clean imagery that can be obtained at a range of ISO speeds from some digital cameras. I like grain, but not all the time. This is one case that I do. Thanks so much for your frankness and for taking the time to visit as well as express your thoughts. You are more than welcome to do so again.
