    yes
    Hey Ian,

    I like the cropped version a lot more than the original. Many of my wildlife shots are heavily cropped.

    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!

    Also, I have a question re: focusing. I've tried center point and maybe just
    need more practice but it sure seems to me that more shots are out of focus
    than in. What's the secret with AF? Should I stick with single shot or servo?
    Servo being focus-until-shutter. I'm shooting in servo mode for the reason
    things are moving (rapidly).

    Many thanks in advance,
    Ian
