Must've been a challenge to shoot such a fast moving object. Luckily, it looks like you were able to push your shutter speed high enough...
Got a tip for us?

I think he had a speed light set up to freeze the action!
What sort of hide do you think he used?
More importantly, after firing the shutter, he was able to get out of the path of that charging beast.
Levens Hall, in Cumbria. The house itself is so-so, but the topiary gardens, laid out in 1690, are amazing...

At least a snail doesn't take off as I get closer

That looks a lot like the snail the MacRy shot a couple of weeks ago, are they using the same modeling agency?

You're right of course, but it's taken all this time for it to get from his place to mine

That is amazing! At first I thought it was red hot lava coming down the mountain.
Thanks Ken. Yip. 70-300mm f4L at 300mm with the aid of a good bit of cropping. Must admit I'm very happy with how sharp this lens is. Taken indoors with low, natural light resulting in a 10-sec exposure.

That's nice... When was this taken because I think that's an F4 and I believe they've been out of service for a few years.
So.. question ... do you get better sharper images using longer exposures?
Still trying to work out why my images are noisy and soft when I take one at night. I messed about with a technique today that involved a median stacking method in photoshop to remove noise. Do you do anything like that ? Or are you getting this good an image from a single frame?
It is driving me insane. My night time shots are shocking...
