Peter, I've tried deleting the first two images that are not mine, unsuccessfully. The third image is my own and can stay. Thanks for keeping it clear, fabulous site.

Gerald, did you physically snap this photo with your camera? If not, we have a strict policy about uploading photos you found on the web. Thanks for being so eager to contribute, but we're looking forward to seeing photos you yourself have taken.
