Sorry but can you elaborate a little? I'm having trouble wrapping my brain around the "double the inverse zoom" part.

Shutter speed is displayed as a fraction of a second, for example 1/250 of a second. Zoom is in mm, so if you're shooting at 200mm then you should aim for a minimum of 1/400 shutter speed. I maybe should have said double the zoom then inverse. Its just a rule of thumb and of course there are exceptions.

EFIX Data 5.6 aperture 300mm 100 ISO 1/250 Exp
Hard to judge this shot without the EFIX data so here you go it has got some great reviews on the other photo sites. It is a bit on the dark side though.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Do you have photoshop? You could easily bring the balances back into line.

I must say that it is a great shot.... National Geographic "quality" or not.... you caught a good moment and I don't think many people would have!

Thanks I thought so too.
I really like the way he/she was posing at the time.
I did not have a lot of time to set up the shot so it was hand held and shot with the settings I had set at the time.
