Thanks Jim, but the second one was from a tripod.

Thanks Lowell, the odd shutter speeds are from using a mac program called "photoinfo" to read the exif data. It always reads off like that. Those shutter speeds should of course be 1/500 and 1/180. Just didn't correct it when I typed it up. The second shot was overexposed and I couldn't totally correct the blown out area when I pp'd it.
