Great catch Fredman! Nice colors & tones, plus the 'in-step' action. I've seen these guys in action, yes it is a delicate balance, if they stop too long, they sink!

Hey tv, sure you can get images like this, but you need a fast focusing and sharp lens. That's more important than the body. Delicate? well I think those little birds dancing across the water looking for food are pretty delicate. Almost like ballet dancers, really graceful.
Cheers! Fred

I bought a D200 recently but can't get shots like this. Very good, but delicate? -tv
