My Tamron 300mm zoom/macro lens arrived yesterday. I did some practice shots in the yard today.

Very nicely done. I always have trouble with wind when attempting something like that.

Thank you all so much for the kind words. :D

Julie, I went with an older model, Nikon 3000. It fit into the budget better than the newer ones.

Rusty, thank heavens for vibration reduction. DH keeps saying 'you can't get a decent picture with that breeze', but the faster shutter speed and VR often come through.
