Nice shot. Next time, though, try to creep up ever so silently wiht, say, a
50/f1.2 and see if you can't get that foreground foliage out of focus, too.
(Be sure to do this downwind, by the way. <g>)

I back from other way round, when I was just back from Olympus E-10, I had a
lot more throwaways. Now I'm returning to normal, just back from a short
Gulin photo trip, most of my friends use tripod where possible even at day
time. Now I will try to use more tripod for my shoots, it really helps a lot
for getting the sharpest possible picture, see this one with a Zuiko
75-150/4 + Tamron 2x SP, F4 or 5.6, Supra 400:

Forgot to mention the tripod, it was a Silk 500GFL modified to use the
Velbon PH-253 magnesium ball head, total weight less than 700g. All my
friend said I was not serious enough, most of them use Gitzo 1228 and two
even took the Acra Swiss ball head. I didn't spent much on the trip but
what follow was a used Gitzo 1228 MKII which cost almost the cost of the
trip.
