That's why it's so tough using 1.8-ish for these moving creatures...but I *love* the wide open apertures.  | Thanks Ann! This picture was a pure accident, but it's the one that showed me what you had been saying - how important it is to have the focal point on just the right area when I'm using those wide open aperatures. This one was taken at 1.8 - I loooove that setting.
