Thanks Asher, it has been a while I know but hopefully I will be contributing more and more.
They say a new camera can not make you a better photographer but it sure can inspire one to take more photographs, and in the case of the D700 I can make pictures now that I simply could not make with my D200, such as this one.
james:
i wish i could come up with something other than, "i like this"
You did and thank you for your thoughts.
John thank you, of course you can give a go at this yourself just as long as I get to see it
In fact I may try this again myself. I am not sure if I am 100% satisfied with the amount of cheek/face in the shot.
