Would be delighted to Bill..! However, some DSLRs are really a pain in "Manual" mode given their layout? That's one of the reasons I like a manual lens on a D200 - in fact - with a manual lens, it can be programmed to "over ride" any settings on the camera? So - if I set f/stop - doesn't really matter the camera mode..
Anyway - about your pic... Wasn't that Herzog's bed being "warmed up"?? Thank gosh we sent Charlie out to clean the birds, so he was no wiser.. Just had a pre-warmed bed
Best to you Bill!
