Thanks, Greg! It's definitely worth a try, it can be quite crowded, though, especially on weekends.

I love the topside view and the great swooping in pose. For me the whites are just too hot though.

Thanks, Tim! I just double-checked to see if there is something wrong with my monitor, the whites are around 245.
