I think that too often we see amazing photographs and think that the photographer was lucky or at the right place at the right time. Not only is it important that people know how much professionals put into their work, but it really enhances our appreciation of the work to understand what goes into it. Thanks for giving us this insight and for everything you've done with TWIP. Scott, that’s an absolutely stunning photo.

However, great story on your tenacity in getting just the shot you wanted. I and my wife just went to the Whitewater Draw Conservation area, just south of Willcox Arizona for the first time. It is also known for the numbers of Sand Hill Cranes that visit there. On New Years Eve we arrived around 10 a.m. and there was not a single crane to be seen. We did see about 150 snow geese and many different types of ducks. Since it has been one of my wife's long time dreams to see the cranes, we returned on Friday, January 2nd and were completely blown away by the sheer number of cranes. There had to be at least 20,000 and maybe as many as 30,000. For over two hours we watched and photographed them standing on the shores, taking flight, and landing. We also got to see a bald eagle and a heron too! Anyway, to the point of the story. I was using my mediocre Minolta Dimage Z2 to take as many pictures as I could, but the shutter lag was excruciatingly slow and I know I missed several good photos because of it. So, because of this I was able to talk the wife into purchasing a newer camera, the Canon EOS 40D. I know that this is not on par with your D3 but I hope to get many better photos after my new camera arrives. Have you thought of visiting Southern Arizona for some bird photos? In the Huachuca mountains near us in Sierra Vista we are visited by 15 of the 16 varieties of hummingbirds of North America. Mike Scott,
