LOL, thanks Gb.  Don't know what my style is; but when I saw that view, the photo basically snapped itself into the camera   |

Much appreciated.  I had a zoom attached when I saw it, and was barely at the minimum focusing distance.
 Managed to get a short vid:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVxMkjjpGgg
 
 Hopefully not a faux pas.

I think your advice about the diagonal is stuck in my subconscious.

 Diagonals/internal frames  >>>>  suggestion of thirds, imo.

What am I doing wrong? All of my shots seem to be soft. Maybe it's my lens, or the old camera. Or is it me?
 Shot was taken at 11pm and it was 92*. I can see the heatwaves

 Probably a combination of the heat/old body/shit ass lens

I could see the heatwaves across the moon clearly on my LCD screen the other night.  Especially at 10X zoom to check focus.  I used the fastest shutter speed I could (1/4000). 
 Bob - The pic gets noisier at 5,184 X 3,456.

How about a baby giraffe racing an Afican crane?
 
  
 
 
 
 Adding this pic to show where he was running:
 
 
  
 
 Thanks for the advice, Scott.
