Set up my Nikon 180mm ED lens tonight on the MI 250 to get some decent tracking.

5 x 30 seconds, Nikon D70. F2.8.

Greg,

Are you shooting these in RAW? You can get a whole ton more info from a RAW file, including greater dynamic range, and better ability to tweak color.

These are great images you are posting, but they could be even better....they could be simply outstanding!
