same to you Steve @weebee

looking at pics 2 and 3 last night, I couldn't help thinking they were not sharp, just put it down to having beer goggles on, then at 3am this morning, bing, I had locked the focus earlier on the day and forgot to switch it off, duh.

You could always shoot them first -- no, wait, that may not work so good. . .

Went back out to San Jacinto this morning, temp were below freezing which is strange for us, some of the ponds had frozen over.

I couldn't resist the white kite even in the low light, he was watching all the red wing blackbirds in the corn fields
