Stunning JR and with a 150mm too, what detail! :eek: For me the chain really adds interest to what is an already stunning image, you can see all the flakes of rust. Looking forward to many more LOL's.

So...........which is the best D7000 or D7100?

Nick. :toast: :wavey: :jump: :toast:

Thanks all.
Hi Nick
Wouldn't like to say at the moment. The extra crop factor on the D7100 can be useful believe it or not.Justdropped my Nikor 70-300 lens before a two day trip to south wales. Therefore interst in photography suddenly on the wain. :biggrin:

Thanks all
I came home tonight with another batch of 300 shots taken as the birds fly around the farnyard perching on everything they can find. I have to wiggle my fingers out of a hole in the hide top to make them face the camera !, The young are just flying (only two ) Will take ages to process the stuff on top of the fact I had 16 species at the pool today . I don't mind taking the stuff - I hate the processing !!
