couple of images 'snapped off' today by my wife with her point and shoot, out the passenger window (Lumix FZ200) all I did in Photoshop was straighten the horizon and crop the edges & resize for limited bandwidth.
no way I can get these opportunistic images with my much better camera by the time I pull up and grovel around for my camera and then change lenses the subject is long gone.
