I have finally done what all of you seem to do so easily.
I actually high fived myself.  :wink:
Looser I know, but I was very excited, and by myself, so I had to make do.  :lol:
This guy caught 12 fish in the 1/2 hour I was watching him.

Excellent slide show Meghan, so glad that you got your GBH shots. The last two photos are priceless. Great work.

Clemens 8)

Tip....On flight or action shots have a shutter speed of 1000/sec or more.
        Try shutter priority of 1000/sec on sunny days and watch your histograhm so you don't blow out your whites.

Hi Folks,

Thanks to everyone, I'm glad you enjoyed these photos.
@Mike, I've never been to the Brickworks (the year hopefully) these shots were taken in Richmond Hill near the rookery.
@Clemens, thanks for the tip..I never expected him to fly so I was not prepared. A ground crew service vehicle scared him off but I will use your tip in the future. Thanks
@Cody, it took me 3 years to get a photo of a GBH actually fishing, so there is still hope  :lol:
@ Whittam, Colin, Zed, Axeman,Jo-Anne,Vince, Attila, Steve and Irene Thanks you all. The photos all of you post inspire me so I am very greatfull all of you enjoyed this series.

Meghan
