I Tried today to photograph Swallows in flight.
I found this really hard to do, anyone got any good tips how to do this well. Here's a link to some of my images

  Robert, They are not bad at all better then the ones I got of the cars & Bikes what lens/ ISO /Shutter speed  were you using and above all what was the location ? Did you know that there are Swifts at Blackness a backside of the museum they seem to nest there and go into the roof space - I must take my Nikon down one evening.
Cheers Fred

Hi Fred.
Have been going walks down to Howden Park to find out what wild life is on my door step, It was there I saw and photographed the swallow's
I was using a Shutter speed of 2500's ISO was 500 @f4 it was quite a dull day.
They just move so fast I find it really hard to get a good Image.
