All you have to do is mention that word, any way you want, in my next post, and I'll leave a link to your blog at the end of a post very soon after. That's it. On to the questions!<br />-<br /><br />@John<br />The zoom on my camera is 4x optical and goes up to 18x with digital zoom. I also have an added zoom lense which multiplies the total by 3.2x, but leaves a lot of blur around the edges. It all does the job, but it's not an impressive setup by current standards. I took the picture at the maximum that the camera would go. It would all be much easier with a camera that does it without the extra lense.<br />-<br /><br />@SquirrelQueen<br />I'm surprised that nobody else seems to have noticed the game. I thought it was easy enough for anyone. I started it just to show appreciation to anyone who is reading the comments.<br />-<br /><br />@Jen<br />Well, it was indeed a happy accident that the shots(I had more) came out so well, but I had plenty of time to set them up.Rick (Ratty)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04062449024949497557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637168036712963543.post-82570852562169379442010-01-18T00:31:35.291-06:002010-01-18T00:31:35.291-06:00I'm quite impressed.

Every time my human pushes the limit with her camera, she winds up spending an inordinate amount of time in Photoshop trying to pull it back from the edge. Enjoy your visit with your dad.<br /><br />P.S. My human's dad is a photographer and he loves doing scenery. Sort of explains why we enjoy your blog so much.Sparklehttp://www.sparklecat.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6637168036712963543.post-46510309051679609092010-01-17T22:53:17.484-06:002010-01-17T22:53:17.484-06:00Well done.
