Thks Jim & Sandy-Sorry about the colors, there was no light at all & I didn't want to use flash so my lack of skill couldn't keep the colors true!

Nice series. I'd give anything for something other than my static shots. I seem to not do well on things that are moving. I'd be proud of 'em.

Not bad for a whippersnapper, Leon....
It takes a lot of patience and luck, not to mention skill when the moment arrives. You held the highlight detail, which is most important.
