Thanks addy and Michele. The subjects seem to be limited at the moment, swallows, darters, ducks and whatever flies overhead. I get these on my daily walk around a good sized lake, [3km perimeter] and hopefully subject matter may change as we go further into summer.

Can't beat those swallow shots
(If only because it's winter here )
But I must give it a try this coming spring
To prove that I manage to shoot birds in flight....

....and swallows...

They are so small, fast and agile, it is challenging to say the least but you did a great job as usual.

Thanks Robert and Charles. Yes they do present a challenge but as I said in my 'out of the groove' post I'm just waiting for all the elements to come together to get that definitive shot, could be a long long time coming.....
