The flying ones are shot with 70-200mm.

I think some of us got take the diving ones. The lens i used last trip was too slow in AF to track (pics soft of oof mostly), so i settle for the lands ones..will try harder the next round..
I am a little girl hoping to own a sony dslr soon...do not PM me for photoshoot na.

Thanks guys for the comments...

HeiPiGu: welcome to the forum...i took the pics all on AF. U can notice thats birds loves to do the same stuffs which means there's almost 70% they will repeat what they are doing. they love flying to the same spot like an example. the easier way is to shoot wide and crop a bit later in photoshop too (refering to flight shots).

here's the babies..hee hee..they are so cute to me...

Thank Geno and Birdie for the tip-off :Thanks:

I see that you managed to schedule your shoot to time with the hatching of the chicks. Congrats!
I never knew this place even exists until I came across this thread. It's amazing there's such a place in Sg!

And the word terns is like a foreign word to me, haha, pardon my ignorance. Great thread! :thumbsup:

last time i tried i switched to MF, AF definitely not fast enough to track the dive and point of entry. got to dig my archives for the shots.
