Great PP. If you hadn't told me, I probably wouldn't have noticed. And that is sweet!

Maybe its just me but I see way too much repeating pattern in there. Try sampling around from different spots and blending them a bit.

I had to play "Where's Waldo" to find a patern, and only see one little spot of grey that repeats. That would be easy enough to cure, but I still think you did a great job and don't find that reply very constructive. Maybe it is just the way I read it after work.

All is well though.

Mollman,

As i speak in math suggests, editors will pick up patterns, so use small bits from several areas to cover the "extra." Under the cooler in Dad's arm are three similar surf streaks that could be combined in parts to look more random.

i thank you all for your advice. I do take the constructive criticism well and that is why i asked. When you stare at something to long sometimes you miss the patters as i did here. Not a big problem but thanks i will try to clear it up. Thanks to all for your input.
I didnt do anything on the cooler side that is all real i believe.I noticed now on the other side though!

Worked on it a bit and found some of the patterns you mentioned. Revised copy in original post. Thanks again.
