Thanks Trevor, shot these with a Canon T1i and 400 f/5.6 sliceotime wrote in post #14376161 Outstanding work! I tried this the other day, didn't even get a keeper.

A friend told me it is a cliff swallow but I thought it was a female barn swallow, he was right after all ... does it really matter?i see with my eyes, i shoot with my fingers.
