...On Stan, you got that right, he's an artisan.<br /><br />On capturing the sea state you're also right. A few paddlers in the scene adds perspective for waves, like when you capture only their heads as they paddle in the troughs.<br /><br />Tony :-)Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03811529922250366230noreply@blogger.com
