tyvm Sharon

was wondering how i'll spend 2 weeks with the inlaws... on a roadtrip, i saw couple of egrets and a bunch of missed opportunities... so i took a cab to seoul and picked up a used 400L 5.6 and waddayaknow, 2 blocks from the inlaw's house, there's this little run-off stream and ever since finding it, i've been walking there in the morning...

made the trip worth it... lol... a white one... er...2 if you consider the lens...

:)
