Well Jeff,

This is the first I've seen of your post. I'm one of those people that pops in, looks at a couple of new threads and heads out.

Maybe you just got bumped ...

I like this photo and the way you've cropped it! The only thing I see that stands out to me is a curved line I see in the bottom left corner. Starts near the branch and curves towards the centre.

I don't know if this was from post, or from some kind of lens flare.

Nice shot:thumb

Nice shot Jeff:thumb I know what you mean about needing something longer ie 300 or bigger. I've been looking around for something affordable yet useable (if that exsists) but since most of my money is paying for the wedding no dice yet. Howz the new camera treatin you?

thanks for the reply brad!

the line on the left is from some sloppy clone work in post. i cloned out some branches that were in the way...still getting used to CS2, but mostly i think i was a little careless there!

Got everything except the beer kegs. For the price we payed for the photog she better expect a little chop bustin:rofl I would have rather spent the money on a new lens for my self and shot the wedding on a tripod and remote trip:rofl :rofl
