Congrats CLS! That was a great photo. I have ruined a many a pair of pants for a shot. Keep it up...totally worth it!

Pat, thanks for the compliment. I didn't really think of the stick sticking out, but now that you mention it...it is pretty distracting. I'll have to remove it. Try to remove stuff from the frame before hand, but its hard to see those things using a 10 stop and it is almost night. :-).
