Great photos!!

Seriously, bro, you will find that MovieMaker LOVES to crash —if you have moving video, especially. Also it takes a long time to load the clips + photos in.

Think seriously about doing the free download of Sony Vegas Pro —offers higher stability, richer functionality, and about 5 other great things.

It only LOOKS more intimidating, at first, but you will QUICKLY catch on.

You can do this now, or I KNOW you will do this later....

I learned the hard way.

Very nice.

Reminds me of Jonathan Livingston Seagull, the classic novella from 1970.

Really cool! I’m fascinated with the aerodynamics and flying abilities of all birds.........

Well done. Your work always makes me feel peaceful and gives me the desire to go camping along an ocean.

Thank you....

Thanks for the include, sir.

Some of those shots dare I say border on stunning.

How much, if any post-processing do you do?

I am impressed! My luck shooting birds against the sky has been pretty poor. I always seem to end up with a silhouette against the sky.

Do you overexpose and then underexpose background?

That is beautiful!

I immediately thought of Eddie Richenbacher (sp?) and his going to the beach on Friday nights to feed the seagulls. He must have been there, at least in spirit!

I found an interesting thread on Flickr about taking pictures of flying birds. A lot of good advice on the thread. See: Link.

I've been having difficulty taking pictures of ducks and other birds that fly by fast, which is why I searched for help. Most of the time the bird I'm trying to take a picture of ends up not in focus. The slower moving ones and the bigger ones I can get -- the fast ones and the small ones are tougher, particularly if there is a lot of background clutter behind them. The camera ends up focused on the clutter rather than the bird if I'm not careful.
