To complement comments made about taking 900+ pix with the *ist DS in
my first 80 days, I'll offer these two photos.

Back yard butterfly, with A100/2.8 macro
as shot, just resized from cameras 2000x3008 pixels
Way easier that slides and scanning...

USAF Thunderbirds, with FA70-200/3.5-4.5 zoom (the wobbly one)
Crop of original at 100% - camera shake added by photographer.
(The formation was a small part of a much bigger picture.)
This was taken at the Chicago Air & Water show last Saturday.
Look closely at the end of right wing of the last aircraft.
Shortly after this pass, the last half of the Thunderbird's show was canceled.
Reports were that a missle rail (hanger) had fallen off of one of the aircraft.
It's only a snapshot, but I was impressed...

Regards,  Bob S.
