If that's the end of the road, the destination looks pretty good so far.

Thanks very much guys, I may get around to a mini review but am loving it to much just now. A big thanks to DavidSW and Kilyung as advisor and facilitator

Here's a family picture, sorry about the quality, I'd love to buy a macro lense but I am broke!
