    ISO 3200 shutter on automatic. It was about 1/3 of a second.

    Now guys, I am a picture taker not a photographer. I compose and frame the shot using the zoom. I then in 90% of the shots let the camera do its thing. I figure it is smarter and faster than I am.

    I don't usually worry about the aperture, speed, or focal length unless I want to purposely blur something. I take pictures. Take enough and some will look pretty good.

    Nice shot John!

    You might want to crop it a bit to get rid of the two heads in the bottom of the photo.

    Me too most of the time. But as your shot shows...even a blind squirrel can find a nut!

    I was intentionally overlooking the "chome" showing the in lower left corner...I tend to steer away from that subject these days! :d
    (That's one reason why I've got no pix of myself to post...for some reason they always wind up with blown highlights!)

    No wonder he wants me to "crop" the shot.
