    Re: Sea Gull portrait

    Thanks everyone for your replies and comments. I am just starting to try and figure out this lens and what settings to use to get decent pictures. I am very happy with this shot but some I take are soft and I am working on the right combination that works the best. Thanks again, Jeff
