    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!"

    That is an excellent shot that I would be proud of. That 70-300VR is looking better all the time.

    (Not sure what you mean by "Peking Duck" in the title as the fowl in the picture is a mallard.)
