Congrats on the new camera Clay, I've been eyeing the 50D myself. I find this photo very beautiful. Once again, with all your close-ups great detail throughout. I think the comp is nice, no nits from me. Well done.

Congratulations on the new camera and lens.

Clayton: I generally don't care much for flashed shots but you carried this off very well. The shadows are well controlled and unobtrusive. It seems a tiny bit underexposed and I like it a little better brightened up a bit. Congrats on the new rig. Looking forward to many more images from it. >=))>
