Helene, I cannot help it if you can't comprehend english. The concept is very straightforward, and by your answer you seem to understand it. You might disagree, but it seems do obvious that there are *things* between tree branches in a forest (beyond sky) that would be good to render. I do not feel the need to site a reference, since I did not mention it in my original post. Finally, I have seen this problem with my own eyes, it has been widely reported in many write-ups in print and on the web and even, and on this list. If you don't want to believe me, fine. Why don't you just try it yourself. I am not selling this equipment and I don't really give a dam if you believe me or not. It was a dumb question that you already had the answer to, and I responded in kind.

It will be taken care of, but it sure is annoying. grdglass@... wrote: > Harvey, > > I find your sarcastic tone offensive. > > I see sky "*BETWEEN*" tree branches. Squirrels? Hardly. Rocks?
