Re: Theme of The WeekBeautiful, SR, Ramkat has tried to capture these guys, but somehow they are allways just out of range.

Re: Theme of The WeekThank you Jay, Imax and BK. I too have tried many times to get these guys in flight, with the same predicament. Had one displaying only about 10m from my car earlier in the week, and sadly none of the shots were as sharp as I would have liked. 300 f2.8 I believe is the answer.
