Test successful, Ian! I really like the trees and reflections. Cool shot of the horse racer also, with the view just under the rail!! TFS

Looks to me like you had a successful test run! Nice set. Is the horse shot that of a trotter?

Well I'd say your new camera passed the test with flying colours, these are great a very nice variety. I especailly like the reflection and the one of the different greens in the fern and moss shot. TFS

Ian, very nice. I love the milkweed, something I haven't seen for ages. Also the second shot has the most fabulous reflection. the last two are just plain lovely. I hope you're enjoying your new stuff.

Thx Leona, the milkweed was so nice to find .. talk about a new learning with the new camera .. it's as foreign in my hands as the first ..
