Excellent!!

How big are the managuense and the motoguense?

Also how do you avoid flash reflection from the tank glass in your pictures?

I took some yesterday but they came out poorly.

Excellent. My domain name had expired. I had no idea until I tried to log on. I was told that after renewing a domain name it can take from 24 - 48 hours to re propagate the internet again. Guess I am back up and running.

You can avoid "flash flare' by angling the camera and zooming in to cut that portion out of the shot. Lots of practice. I probably shoot 20-30 photos every night.

Jumbo is 8". Motaguense are only 6".

Those Nics have some teeth! And I never get tired of looking at those motaguense. I will have to ask LFS if they can get me any.

Some of the best pics I've seen anywhere. Superb. (Do you have to use a digital camera to get pics like that? All I've got is a 35 mm with a 50mm zoom option.)

I totally agree! That's how my Akasha is. I always ask her, "What are you so angry for?" ;)
