That bow has a wonderful shape. Nice job. Who're the folks in the picture on the fireplace?
Got your fine bow bookmarked under Self Bows for January.

think if the pic was yellowed that means your exposure compancation needs to be changed. if you have a digital that should be in the menu settings.

I probably need to read up on it some more PK, or at the very least take pictures in late afternoon or a cloud covered day.  :)

I appreciate it Anthony ole buddy! I sure do enjoy making bows with you and Pappy and our other buddies. We really are fortunate to have this available to us...especially the comaradarie of enjoying it with friends! :)

Thank you Frank, I know it would be quite a trip for you...but we sure would like for you to visit us during the Classic one of these years. Maybe you and Marius could both come one year. ;)

Greg, my turn to say wow! Nice bow. That is a beauty you made.

I was about to ask who the folks in the portrait were, but someone beat me, so I won't ask :)
