You can say that again - I might just have to go find something more normal to post from now on.

Cool flash shot dm. Focus was on the t...?

Killer - thanks. If only that were true, would certainly help fund a 300/2.8 or a 500.

I missed focus a smidge on this one, but at f/8 it's really not noticeable unless you're viewing it @ 100% size.

Nice shot and thanks the sharing I should have use more 50mm 1.8 more often and try it at f8.

Thanks Digitaltuned for your kind words I appreciate it.

Didn't get the lighting I was looking for as the sun was hiding most of the time. Managed to get these droplets before the rain really started coming down.

[bobobird]

The drops came out nice and sharp in the first. Not so sure about the 2nd.

Agreed, Bobo. Focus area in the 2nd one is a little busy and probably didn't get the proper angle to get the drops as sharp as I did in first shot.

Nice droplets, considering the conditions you shot them in.............

Nice shots. Did you try the exposure compensation for maybe adding 1 full stop to have more details in it. They look awesome but since you mention lighting I thought maybe that can help you obtain what you want IMO.

Kestrel as it lifted off to run away from me.
