Thanks to all for taking a moment and offering your kind comments.
FWIW: This image is a PP (Lightroom 2.4/Photoshop 7.0) experiment that teases an image from a very tight crop out of an otherwise chaotic insitu photo.
Didn't hurt to have an ol' FA 77 Ltd perched on the front of my K-7, either. That's some lens... eh? (L-O-V-E my DA 70 Ltd, too)
And I could not be happier with the K-7. It's frequently compared in the literature to the K20D. IMHO... it's a very different critter and for me, at least, it has a unique re-learning curve (yes, I own a K20D and used it almost exclusively for over a year... great camera, as well

)
Enjoy your weekend...
