Yep, that's the goal:  but I'm going to have to get a lot more experience 
under my belt photographing people, and, more importantly, working the 
equipment I own.  I think that's the key--I need to get to the point where I 
can effortlessly adjust/use equipment so I can keep the witty conversation 
going. ;-) But that's the amazing thing about learning anything, right--to 
get to the point where you can execute the skill without the beginner's 
self-consciousness.   The zone is the goal!  Cheers, Christine
