    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks Ric. Just one photo...taken at 1/15 sec to give the soft blurred part, and flash to give the more solid part. Kind of a fun technique once the sun has gone down.

    Nice series. I like no.2 the most. Nice simple composition and good timing with the fish in the mouth.
