Nice shots Laura, but… the water does not look leveled. Maybe it could be cropped and leveled or is it just the illusion.

Oh well, I'm sorry Laura, but I think it was just me this morning. I tried to make it level and found out it was. It's just the shore line that gave me this impression.

I hope you will excuse me… ;)

That's ok. LOL! It is a small pond and the curve shows. It was a crop from the larger photo. If I leveled it I would have had a tippy teepee.

From early childhood, I have always been a fan of crossbows. I used to belong to a regular bow club many years ago, but as time went on, so did my interests. My problem is too many interests in seemingly expensive hobbies! lol Motorcycles, karate, photography, scuba diving, rc helicopters, and back to photography.......just too much week left at the end of the money. :) I can't afford them all, unfortunately, so I'll just stick to my photography. :)

By the way...nice crossbow, Laura. :)

265 shots to get these and they aren't even good. Way too much noise. Not sharp enough. First attempt. If I get better, I'll post 'em. Now I have to go clean up my mess. :)

Learned that the ISO is way too high for one thing.

Lscha,

You have some amazing pictures in this folder. Well done. I concur with westmill, you need a flash to stop the action. There are some really cool things you can do with sound triggers as well.

265 images is a lot of patience!! I have tried this and given up long before this many efforts. Very nice results.

Should I do it???? I am having a NAS attack and can swap out my D3100 for a D5100 for about $120. I love my D3100 but can't help wondering if I would like the D5100 better. If I start sneaking up on upgrades right now, then maybe I can have a really great camera sooner. Does an NAS support group help you spend money or save money? What should I do??
