[C320-list] Second Reef - Selden Rig

[Myron Welch]

Hi Jeff,

Most photos open, but when I tried to view this picture and two other  
previous photos, but get the following message: "You do not have  
proper security privilege to view this page.  Your user name and IP  
address have been recorded."  It makes no difference if I sign in or  
not.  What do I need to do?  Thanks for all your help.
