Assignment 9: Less is More

Hello everyone! Sorry about the two month delay in getting a new assignment up, I just finished the worst semester I have ever experienced and wasn't browsing the web much during the last half...too much work. But, anyway we are back on track with Assignment 9 courtesy of BTaylor.


In his own words: "The good old K.I.S.S principle.<span>Keep<span>It<span>Simple<span>Stupid. Sometimes the simplest of photos canbe much more effectivethan a busy one.
