    Hi Randy,

    It is working out really good -- I love it, but still so much to learn. I thank-you again for all your help with it.

    Thanks for looking Randy :D

    Howdy Mary,

    Looks like the Sun was out and the Tweeters were enjoying it.

    Looks like you and your new lens are being good friends.
    Take care,

    Hi Craig --

    The Tweeters were enjoying it :D I waited so long for that one bird to sit still in the sun so I could get her photo. The sun shinning on her beak was just right when I finally caught it.

    Yes...the lens and I are becoming the best of friends iloveyou.gif

    Thank for looking and commenting Craig.

    Great shots Mary Kim, I take it you got a long lens the way it blurs the background. Very nice.

    Hi Mary,

    Very nice work....I'm impressed with your efforts here. Good tools can help a lot, but your growth as a photographer goes beyond that.

    Take care,

    Tom
    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    My hubby was so nice to buy me a 70-200 2.8 IS wings.gif Not as long as my 70-300, but a much better lens.

    He made me work for it tho...I was hunting down reindeers on Christmas Eve. John had hid toy reindeers all over the house..each one leading me to another. I even had to go outside in a blizzard eek7.gif

    Thanks for looking and commenting :D
