Tina, may I suggest that you take one of the younger paritioners  
under your arm (into your confidence) and use him/her as a lens  
support/tripod (shoulder/head) to replace the gun-stock for the 400.  
The adults will be happy/jealous to see one of their own sharing  
activities with the foreign lady and earning extra favors for the  
church.
