Couple of shots from the front yard/street  (focus point is the bottom of the sign, hoping to show layers and bokeh, plus detail. (I got the white balance wrong, and wife had the cam set to jpg only, so I pooched this one)

And then a porsche flew by, so I shot - with the 5D and on single shot/static focus, it's not the most ideal, but there was a distinct lack of birds in the area, and my 1DIII is at the studio, so this will have to do for 'moving' object.

PS - since I'm partially funding an IQ back with this, I encourage folks to make an offer.
