Looks like the workshop paid off Shane.
Really nice BIF images and detail.
Martin
p.s. maybe you could pass on a couple of the main tips you learned there for BIF? Its an area I am trying to work on.

Thanks again everyone. Still going through many pics to another round with another bird.

As for the tips:
1. AI serio.
2. Pan
3. Shoot in AV and use exposure comp, till you can do it in manual.
4. Shoot tons of pics (spray and pray) until you know what you want and how to get it.
5. Use high ISO to make sure you get at least 1/500 or above....1/1000 would be better.
6. Practice, practice, practice.

Beautiful shots of a not common bird. Known to be a ferocious scrapper. Well done!
