Thats what makes your shot so good, i can recognise the limits of your equimpment. yes most certainly patience, and spot a pattern so you can get more time to experiment
with settings, its very rare i can many with spontanious photography.

true....

on a given day, i start with the settings that i learn from here and there, and by the end of the day im on my own.
so yes, experiment is a must..

and can i ask u something?
im saving to buy a new lens for my cam. and as u can see, im having a d60 which means im not a pro, just on personal level. so what zoom lens would u recommend. nothing much, just good photography that is satisfying.

Well i finding photography is a constant learning curve, and one that is infinitive LOL. its all those little thing you will learn that can all be added up
to get that good shot i've found over the years. few and far between at first but very nice when they start getting consistant.

yes i'll try and give you a few pointers on len's etc etc. the best way is to know what your ambitions are and your budget are. that way
i can quickly give you some sugestions and explain the limits. just send me a note.

You are very good at these montages, very clever, seamlessly put together. I don't think I could do it, even if I knew how! Each shot excellent caught too. You are the best bird action photographer in the world I believe

Thankyou very much its not that hard really, if you get a few off quickly again't water especially it makes it easier to hide the joins.
and in a short field of view, that helps with the light angle not changing and holding the same DOF.

Many thanks I can safely say i seem to notice all the signs and understand whats going on with birds and there behaiviour. And i often fall out with myself when i miss
something different or special, but i learn from it and wait till the next time

Amazing study of the wings of these fun birds. The positions really demonstrate how these wings work. Nice!
