Hi again everyone,

I think I may just wind up entering a future version of this image in the
IRTC this round, that's why I put a signature on it... please don't
distribute this... thanks..

I warmed up the image by adjusting the sun color and position... I'm going
for a late afternoon setting... you know, that "golden time" right before
sunset.

Anyways,  I'm having some issues with my photons... they are working very
well, but I'm getting speckles behind the top of the columns... I'm assuming
that this is because I need to use more photons, but thought I should ask
first.  The image rendering stats and pic follow, input is appreciated.

- Chris
