Me too, I like him too :-D :joker:

Does this mean when you're out of competition, that you can place your pictures on the forum, before the end of it?
I'm out ;-)

welcome on Board Dirk! Hope you have great time here at Benno's.

(btw: is dirk also a German name? I Thought of it as a Dutch name. Or did you mean the Scottish dagger with your forum name? :) )

Cheers,

Christiaan

Bravo!

I almost voted for it (against myself!) in the painting competition.

I thought it was you. Amazing!
