Great shot. How about some specifics; camera, lens, exposure etc.

Thanks, Chris. I'm always interested in those details and I check my results when I have a good shot to confirm my decisions when making manual adjustments.

At 1/60 sec and f4.5 you were just inside the envelope. Does your Fuji allow you to change the ISO, to say 800?

The fastest iso my camera does is 400. I find that wish a fast iso the pics tend to get noisy though.
