i am still waiting to get a full frame bat in flight with a crisp focus-but am having to settle for crops.it hard to to do as you cant see them through your camera and have to estimate where they will be before you shoot,which with telephoto dosen't give you much of a margin for error-i will perservere

this has had USM applied

thanks harry

i thought you would understand the difficulties.

i have searched image banks and google for shots of flying fox at night, in flight, and they are very rare,mainly images of them at rest in trees-once i get a better one i will try and sell one
