Great work Bill. I'm really impressed by results you achieved there.

Thanks Gianluca. I like the way the members of this forum are able to bounce ideas off each other. It's a great place to be.

So glad you liked them, Gianluca. Especially the second one which I had some doubts about.

An intriguing image, Julian. I agree with Gianluca. Even before I read his comment I'd gone from the trite 'The Carnival is Over' interpretation an wandered into 'Alas poor Yorrick' territory.
