Our anniversary is coming up here in a little while, and she got me the nicest gift anyone has ever gotten me-- the Canon 20d that I'd been hoping to upgrade to sometime next year. :shock: :thumbsup:

Anyway, here's the first shot from it. This is actually a crop of about 20% of the original frame. The clarity and detail is staggering, even coming from the 6.0MP Canon 300d. :shock:

You're a lucky guy in more ways than one!

Whoa!!! I get a strong " John" feel to the composition. I question the harsh lighting.

Heh, good call. I have a process in PS for adding a simulated soft-filter, and I did and un-did the effect about a dozen times. I actually like the softer version better (I'll toss that up as soon as I get it uploaded), but wanted to put up the sharper version to show the detail the camera can produce.
