I suppose I should put this information at the beginning of each TT.

My camera kit :-

Nikon D5100 & D5000 bodies.
Nikkor 18-55 and 55-200mm lenses.
Tamron 90mm macro lens.
Sigma 15-500mm zoom lens.

The D5100 usually has the 150-500mm lens attached unless I'm using the Macro lens.
The D5000 usually has the 55-200mm fitted but I also use the 18-55mm on this camera for scenic shots.

You do realise many of us have no clue about your tech info...but so be it!

Don't you love taking newbies to Kruger and seeing everything through their eyes? $\O$

Excellent shots in general but the egret is particularly fantastic. $\O$
Your photos seem to get better and better and better - it that's still possible at all.

No matter whether short or not, the main thing is to be there, BluTuna $\O$

Some more than lovely elephants shots, lots of hippos and crocs as well and then these brilliant draonflies and egret pictures

Fantastic

Thanks RP $\O$ Insects aren't repulsive, they're just different

BB asked the question and the answer was not intended for the photographically challenged*

* Individuals who have no idea what "shutter speed" "aperture" or "ISO" means. No clue what a 150-500mm lens does (in DX or FX format). Includes iPhone snappers, point & shooters and those who use a DSLR camera on AUTO!

(insert large pinch of salt here

Thanks Nan! Birds in flight are hard to get, I love it when I get a shot where the whole bird is in the picture and it's not blurred $\O$

Kruger newbies are great! I think I missed my vocation - I should have been a game guide!
