Shyam, you're a master of the tease! It feels as if we're being let in on some devilishly clever caper... some sneaky secret we shouldn't know... which is exactly what it is. Terrific work!

Obviously I have taken the adage "sell the sizzle , not the steak" very seriously :-))

Thanks Dave! Not long now... and then we start the next project.

Hi Shyam, what camera did you use for the shoot of Onaan?
Shyam Madhavan Sarada Comment by Shyam Madhavan Sarada on December 27, 2008 at 8:21pm
It was an HVX200, Alby. Any particular reason why you ask?
