The light in the evening was geeting pretty weak so I opted to use an 800 ISO so I could continue to hand-hold my Canon 100-400(IS)lens at 400mm. The dark background was due to the dark water behind the sprig being blurred nicely by the wide-open lens. It did create, however, a lot of noise that was quite noticeable in the print. That noise, and the slightly-blurred leaves, gave me the idea to try photoshop's artistic filters. I rather like the results. Ben #132715
