I was out practicing with my beamer this morning on the way to work when this one flew over. All my practice at focusing and zooming at the same time is starting to pay off. This is almost the full frame. I've also learned to expose for the sky and shoot manual exposure. (70-200mm + 2X at 400mm on 40D, f8 1/1500s ISO 400, 580EX-II flash at 1/4 manual + Better Beamer)

There are three colours, Ten digits and seven notes, its what we do with them that’s important. Ruth Ross
