, lest folks think we were shooting together yesterday...I'll review yours if you review mine http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=121774.

I shot mine at 1/640 and I noticed yours was at 1/750 and I'm wondering if we both had worked with aperture and/or EV settings if we could have gotten a faster shutter speed and perhaps just that little extra sharpness zing that could have made the difference between really good and wowie zowie. That said, I like this image. What pp did you do?

My pic was straight off the camera except I cropped it pretty heavily. I took the photo last summer. I had just been seeing what i could do with Canon EF 100-400 f/4 -5.6L IS USM lens I just gotten. I was jsut sitting on a patio chair shooting handheld.
Here is the original pic, then the cropped and then a little bit of photoshop
