    Thats an awesome picture.
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    I will check the exif on the original latter tonight but I am 80% sure I was at ISO 500, 1/80sec and f/3.5 but I may be wrong. I take so many photos on a daily basis that I forget settings on each photo. The shot was quite easy actually. I put my 30D on my monopod and pressed the shutter at the same time I touched the wires together. Crude... yes, not the best shot.... yes, a little out of focus... yes. but it works for me
