    great light on this – and featured by RB today! congrats

  • Fruitexplosion replied

    Thanks a lot, I am thrilled about the feature, but am really new to this site, so I haven’t a clue who to thank and where??

    RB is a bit elusive – I don’t think there’s any way to thank whoever it is who chooses the features but people usually add a note to the description of the shot along the lines of ‘Featured by RB 18 Sep 09!’, and may also write a journal entry to say thanks that will be read by all your watchlist. If you want to ask anything else, just drop me a bmail. Cheers
