I think I have you to thank for that extra 1pt Heather! Otherwise, wouldn't we have had a joint 1st place?  Good round though.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Why? I'm not questioning anything about the image itself, I'd just like to know why you had your camera set to capture in JPEG mode. Mark

As it was at a Rally perhaps the ability to take more pictures before the buffer was filled.

So, perhaps some people actually liked the image (it did get 12 pts in the voting round). Just a simple "no post-processing, just converted the image to sepia" would work just as well as, if not better than, an effort to mock your supposed doubters. I remember posts complimenting your eye for a good photo, we're not out to get you, honest. Chillax, a wee bit.
