Very nice photo! I have the same camera. Are you going to upgrade to the s9000? I have been tihinking about an up grade soon. I cant deside about what camera.

I looked at all your photos and all are very nice!

Thanks for the compliment! You to have a wonderful gallery! I was considering the S9000 as well as the S2 PRO and the Nikon D70. Its a difficult choice though as I have become very comfortable and efficient in using the S7000. Although it is always nice to upgrade! #2214641

You know, looking at his neck he may have already ingested! There's a bulge in it. I like this image for several reasons; the reflection of the water on the bird is lovely and the circular ripple adds grace. #2818171
