The top one definitely reminds me of the A-6. Good job on it! Lower one strikes me as a bit dark on the subject.

Did I miss something? What's the new camera gonna be?

Thanks Mike :D Yeah the last one is a little bit dark. Probably because I was between it and the sun and the camera lens over shadowed it. Should touched it up in PI 6. :wink:

That is what I thought it was Tom but I wasn't sure. Thanks :D Yep that 20D is gonna be some new technology for me. Been wanting a nice dSLR for some time now. I previously was considering the Fuji S3 Pro. It takes Nikon lenses though. :) I'm gonna bill Sue for it. She more or less talked me into it. :lol:

Congratulations! I'll bet you like it. You'll have a lot more control with the SLR. Good job of luring him into the Dark Side, Sue! :-)

:lol: Hope your not too close Charlie. Those things are noisey but an excellent bomber (the A-6 that is, not the Syrphid Fly)! They have a nasty habit of eating people and blowing you off the flight deck if you are not careful. :wink:
Thanks! :D
