As well as the MASSIVE artifacting. Also, why did you remove the metadata?
No improvement from the last post:

As far as the image goes the crop would be a much better shot. Can't tell what the heck it is in the regular sized image. In the crop you can at least tell what it is. But, as mentioned it is a mute point because of the artifacts and copyright.

Note from Dave's editor: He meant a moot point, but I'm sure we all got his intent. :)
Thank you, no charge. (Aren't I nice?)

To be fair to Dave he was typing it not speaking it , so it could have been a mute point as well.

It's "for Laurin and me" (but almost nobody gets that (even though nobody would say "for I")). —Now I'll have to ask my supervising editor, "Are double parentheses allowed?" And he'll say, "No, the inner ones should be brackets," and I'll say, "Get outta here." Grammarians can get a little obnoxious. ;)

Which is correct? "in spite of" or "despite of"?

"despite of" isn't an accepted term-it has no meaning in the English language.

I thought so too that's why I asked but............Merriam Webster lists despite (not despite of) it as a synonym (despite and not despite of) . I found the answer in the link below. Anyway thanks Ken.

Kenny I wouldn't say that it has no meaning in the English language.
From what I understand when used in the context of "despite of" and "in spite of" what usually happens is when the word "despite" is used the preposition "of" is dropped and only the word despite is used. So they basically mean the same thing it is just that "of" is not used in one of them.
I will now turn to my editor Ken to see if that is correct :)

You are correct as I pointed out in the link I posted above.

Okay, Grammarians!
I'll add a few: It's not "Walla!", it's "Voila!" (pronounced "vwalla"). The v is not silent (and neither is the w).
"Advice" is a noun.
"Advise" is a verb.
Therefore, I can't advice you but I can give you advice.
I can't give you advise but I can advise you.
Starting a sentence or paragraph with "so" intimates that a conversation is already in progress and the speaker is continuing his/her line of thought after having PREVIOUSLY spoken. Therefore, starting a conversation/thread/letter, etc., (when the speaker has not previously spoken) with "so" is incorrect and very bad form and will most likely result in the speaker getting incarcerated in the grammar jail at some point in his/her life.
"i.e." is "id est" and it means "that is".
"e.g." is "exempli gratia" and means "for example"
"etc" (NOT "ect"!) is "et cetera" and means "and so on"
