Really nice Meghan, btw I was down there today looking for the Merganser's...I guy with a Canon camera with 500mm lens told me to adjust my qhite balance to cloudy if it was cloudy out or sunny if it was sunny out but to not leave it on auto the point being buy adjusting the white balance you eliminate the blue tint in the water otherwise your pics are still beautiful.

Thanks again to the 3 of you.
I actually think I may be getting the hang of it.
Colin,
Great tip. Much appreciated. Something I will have to try out.
I see what you mean about the blue tint though.  I never really noticed that before.
One more thing I have to learn.
It's not easy, but ohh so enjoyable.
Thanks again!!
Meghan
