It is a nice gallery, with several very interesting and pleasing

I also like Don's "Snowfog" a lot, but perhaps my favorite is "Wiggle"

Hand held!
That TAV setting is my standard.
Dependable for wing shots as well.
I was hoping for him to take off and
waited for a bit in case.
Thanks again.

Is this handheld? If shooting a perched bird off a tripod or even a monopod, I 
find that 1/500th is all that’s necessary. I do go to 1/1000th  or even

Yes, Jack, he is handsome & well caught.

I did some calcs. using the old Sunny 16 rule, @ 1/2000, f8, the ISO should 
be 500. I see yours is 640 so the light was probably marginally less than 
Bright Sun.


I've been trying the Sigma 170-500 with your 1/2000, f8 formula & find the

Next time I'm going to take my light meter along to get a cross check.
