Description

This is the result of data collected from March 1rst of this year and February 22 of last.  I was waiting on the weather to added some extra data to the 50 frames I collected last Friday, but call it impatience or boredom, I decided to beef it up using some archived frames. The end result forced me to do some heavy cropping but it was fun to play with. That's what counts!
