How on earth did you manage!!! Getting one this sharp is hard enough. Two is stunning. Great work Constable.

Thanks for the feedback. Mea culpa

These were in a mixed group of about twenty red and black. I was reasonably certain that these two were black and did not really check! The next in the sequence are black!

However, you are correct. Now I need to figure out how to change the label on the gallery!

Thanks again
