I know, I know...But you asked how to get fast moving little kids, and as someone who spends a whole lot of time doing same, I can tell you there's nothing like it. B.

I used to specialize in this kind of picture...kid candids. - ----------------------------- Mike Is that it? You're just going to make a statement like that and leave me dangling like a participle (whatever that is). How about some hints and tips. First of all though, I know how annoying it can be when somebody pins you down with a specific question when you'd much rather be off chasing new and more interesting threads. So please answer only at your convenience. Have you ever noticed how quick a toddler can turn their head for instance? I swear that from one position to another is just a blur, there is no in-between. Fast shutter speeds and wide open lenses are not my normal style and I am really making a botch of capturing some unrepeatable situations. Any help would be appreciated. Alan
