Re: Beautiful

Thanks for the comment. While my point-and-shoot + photoshop can produce some good pictures, this is one of those times I wish I had an expensive camera and knew how to use it.

Re: Beautiful

For $400 or so you can get a camera in between a point-and-shoot and a digital SLR. Some people really like them but others think they aren't worth the extra over a point-and-shoot.

Re: Beautiful

Yeah, I have an "SLR-style" camera that I got as a gift. It's nice, but for an object as far off as this eagle was, it's clearly insufficient.
