Thanks Jack. The Jays are shot using the Sigma 300 F4. I put the tripod next to me whilst sitting in my patio chair, MF and pre focused on a peanut, and hand on the trigger. When one flew down i shot.
I don't have a release.:-) Yes i did crop some what on the first one, and quite a bit on the last one, to get rid of some unwanted stuff. He didi not land were i wanted him/her to.:-0 Dave On Wed, Jul 9, 2008 at 11:10 AM, Jack Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Like the set, Dave.
