Hi,
<purple> Just been mowing the lawn in a glorious, early summer evening. Gazing westward, I noticed against the setting sun a small flock of house martins (Delichon urbica) skimming over the stand of Sycamore trees (Acer sp) feeding on the hatching insects. </purple>
Legging inside, I brought out the Z1-p, AF1.7 and Tamron 90mm. 100ASA slide film. Touch of overexposure. Did I get any good pictures? Did I pills - and I don't mean lager. They were just too fast to keep up with. A whole film gone and I'm sure that there will be nothing on it worth looking at, although I'll process it anyway. The camera could keep in focus but I couldn't get "the moment" right. _Much_ harder than black grouse.....
Looking out of the window, I see the little, feathered sods are back. Dilemma: do I try again or just enjoy the sight?
Got any spare barn owls, Cotty?
