Guys, sorry about that Please have another look, the pictures are now hosted on another server, took them a few months ago in NZ using My D70, 70-200 VR, ISO 400+, Shutter Priority between 800-2000:

Please let me know what you think of the photos.

Very nice. Crisp and nicely in focus, hard to achieve with a bird which moves that fast.

Thanks Oneputt

Actually there was a bit of luck involved... and a lot of practice (and discarded shots)

Hey Dilan,

Great series of photos of a difficult subject. Being picky, the background is a bit distracting in #1 & #2, but you've absolutely nailed it in #3 & #4.

#2 is a great flight shot. The OOF background could be cloned over the roofing to make it look like some wilderness shot. I'd also clone out the human element in #3, but that's just me.

Thanks Shakey,

Now all I have to do is get Photoshop CS or maybe the new Nikon NX
