I got the call today! My D70 got in. When I picked it up I grabbed a $30 tripod. I was going to go a little nicer for my first, but decided for $30 I can give it a shot and if I don't like it I will not have wasted that much money. This is one of the shots that I liked a bit from the 10 mins that I spent outside. One of the things that I now am made very aware of is that I need to find my remote release. One can not do long exposures without it, unless you HOLD the shutter open. That sort of defeats the purpose of even having the tripod. So anyways have my baby back is nice, having the tripod is cool.
