man, Kurt, we get by with a little help from our frends. Jay's advise hit the spot. beautiful depth of field now. My crit.., i miss the taslucent look of the 'skin.' i lved that texture, and thanks for telling me how you greated that nderwater look. i would have been playing around in a fluid container awasting time if you hadn't let that workflow out.
take it easy and life will be easy
