Yes perhaps the lighting / exposure could be pushed a bit higher. In both cases the birds were almost directly overhead (holding in a stall against the breeze) with the sun just out of the frame to...

Thanks for looking -CheersNamur

Certain of these may stretch the limits of "monochrome", but here goes. No particular theme perhaps, but at least it's the weekend -Thanks for lookingCheersNamur

How did you get this angle !?Namur

Why not turn off AF & try shooting manual ? The E 510 is a nice camera.I mostly shoot an E-5 but I like what I see of the E-510 (used to own an E-500). My 50-200swd does hunt in a lot of cases when...
