jodelak Cream of the Crop  More info | May 04, 2012 11:39 | #1 Ever since my first swallow pics I just got hooked by these beautiful fellas. For weeks I tried to get a decent shot of the violet-green and finally it happened yesterday. Not the best time of the day I wanted because the sun has set, so I have to shoot at ISO 800 and shutter speed of 1/90. I was just lucky this fella posed for me   And a heated discussion from these 2 barns   ... does it really matter?i see with my eyes, i shoot with my fingers.

Thanks Sharon, they do get tired, the key is to know when and where they perch when they take a breather.
