Kim - Roscoe sends his love back. Smooch. Doug - Thanks, yes the original files really show the sharpness and details, but trying to be dial-up friendly. Misha - Lens hood helps, but when the Donkey, Goat and horses all start fighting for your attention, you just got to run!!! Sheila - Thanks, Aurora is a beautiful dog. TwoPynts - So far real happy with this lens, yes a regular animal farm. Thanks everyone for looking.
