Title: [Theme] The decisive moment....
Post by: Kitanikkor on December 23, 2015, 05:29:12: I'm not sure how Cartier-Bresson would define it, but for me the decisive moment comes the split second between the decision and the act.

Here's mine....let's see yours....

Wow, what a great catch. Beautiful OOF background, too. More than the usual BIF.

Title: Re: The decisive moment....
Post by: tommiejeep on January 05, 2016, 05:15:40: Mike and John, many thanks. The D750 is a very good camera for action. The Bee Eaters some times give an indication that they are about to launch after a flying bug , sometimes not . In this instance it gave me an indication but you never know what direction they will go ;)
