Oldjackssparrows Jeeeez, incredible comments! ![]() More info | Nov 10, 2009 07:49 | #12 I agree with Snowyowl, like #2 but a tighter crop would have eliminated the blurred truck on the left. Nice shot all in all, wish those guys or any Owl would show around here! Donate to Pekka, help pay our server costs...
