Great shot Mary, doesn't the S7000 just take great shots! I love mine and can't believe the macro results! #724546

Thank you, everybody ~ Cathy, Terry, Elisabeth, Dan, and Donald ~ for your kind words. I really appreciate your taking the time to comment!
Donald, I guess you and I should go to the "camera review" section here at bp and give this model Fuji its due. The macro AND the zoom are awesome, and the "shutter response" is SOOO cool! #724742

Looks like you caught him in the middle of his sunbath, Mary, you had a quick shutter finger to catch that "hey, you're annoying me" expression so well! #724977

Hi, Colette and Carol! Thanks very much for stopping by with your comments!

Carol, I was standing about 20 feet away, snapping several shots of him in a row, when the noise startled him. One of my clicks happened to catch him at the exact moment he reacted. Photographer's luck! #724991
