Thanks Rick!!

What a surprise this was!

Glad you like it, what was an experiment of sorts came out pretty decent, im happy with it!

With the warm weather and clear skys, I decided to go down to the beach and get a few shutter clicks, it was over 80 in the wintertime at 5:30 pm!

Thanks again,

Carl

Should have comment on this one much earlier. It's got every thing rolled into one package. Very nice job. No problem giving this a 10. I rarely rate photos but this one deserves it.

Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

Have been somewhat satiated by all the sunset/sunrise studies but must say that this one does you credit, Me Boy ! What is also interesting is the much improved quality of SOME digital zooms today. At one time they were for emergency only but the situation has improved tremendously. Nice one, Carl

Thanks Glenn,

I honestly didnt think that the digi-zoom would look this good , but really all it is internally is a crop from the nicely sized 10.3 megapixel image, down to 3 megapixels. What would have been nice is if this were from a telephoto image and I had the full resolution, but oh well.
