    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!"

    Looks like you must have waited quite awhile for the bird to give you a clear shot - lots of twigs and branches.

    Nice shot Ric. You're definitely progressing.

    Just curious, what area do you shoot at? I'm in Wilowbrook (55 and Rt 83) and am looking for places to try out. Any ideas?

    A little forest preserve in DeKalb county, where hardly anyone ever goes!

    And the security guards at U.S. Cellular Field (I can't get used to that name) wanted to take the game winning ball out of the hands of the guy who caught it. What terds! The fan got away with the ball. Good for him!
