100% not colourful...

Thanks for posting these interesting birds Bobo, I like 2 better also. I was glad to receive a little of Colins teachings in an area that has perplexed me.:)

Thanks Colin. Flash idea is nice but not with the current combo which is heavy enough as it is. :)

I did not know about the relationship between monitors/cameras etc. Thanks for that.

No worries. If you're going to shoot back-lit then "something has to give" unfortunately - especially if they're dark subjects.

Flashes also introduce their own set of issues to be managed (eg hard light / harsh shadows). It's something I think would be of benefit to you though (and yep, I know all about the weight!)

For the first, you didn't get permission. For the second, it said, "mine! mine!"
Btw, you weren't eyeing the fish, were you? :D
That is the difference, perhaps the only one.

Thanks Ramachandran, there are lots in the market so he need not fear competition. But he did not know that. :)

But just to rub it in, he took off a sec or 2 later landed about 10 feet away and swallowed it right there.
