Thanks BigV, after 30+ years of shooting I still get a good feeling inside when I visualize a shot, take the picture and see it come out just the way I wanted it to.

As a sidebar note, the waterfall shot and the sunset were both taken with no tripod. The former was a 2 second exposure, just found a rock ledge to set the camera on. The sunset was taken with a 400mm as I sat in a plastic lawn chair on the beach bracing the lens using the armrests for support; on and that lens also has a built in image stabilizer which helps.
