My only experience was this barn owl that regularly caught prey on a summer's evening before sunset. Fairly heavy crop (200mm on a 1.3 sensor) and the focus is soft but this was a better shot than the sharper ones.... <http://www.cottysnaps.com/snaps/nature/images/pic5.html> -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
