Hi G, the hardest shot to get is the bird comming at you, make sure first and foremost that you have the camera in sports mode, I believe that is the only mode on the N60 that has focus tracking which will continue to keep focus with moving subjects (focus tracking or AI servo) any non tracking mode will leave you a bit soft with fast moving subjects as from the time you get focus lock to the time you actually depress the shutter though may be as little as 100th of a second is enough for it to move enough to render a soft photo.........

Anyway I did get your email and have it ready to reply to, things have been a mess here, backed up with work etc.. the usuall stuff, I just stopped in here to see that POS mark julian is using me for an example of being over awarded LOL. More UF drama, you had posted here but i assume before mark let loose or you would have stuck up for me LOLLLL..

I really like the somewhat grainy (for lack of a better term) tone, it gives the swan a clasic atmosphere, which it deserves. Nice composition and colours. Very well done.

I like this one a lot Gayle. The focus is a bit soft on the swan, but as you mention, the swan be moving fast on ya! Great framing with the foreground branches too. Very sweet :)
