Bat in Flight at Dusk. I am looking for suggestions how to better capture images of flying bats. This image was taken with a Nikon D3s camera and 400 mm f/2.8 lens (ISO 12800, f/2.8, 1/320 sec). The bats were moving too fast and it was too dark to autofocus. So I manually set the focus for about 10 meters (~33 feet), followed the bats, and tried to press the shutter button when they were in focus.

Night Time Thunderstorm. Two minute time-lapse video. Moon, Clouds, Lightning. Approximately 3000 Images taken between midnight and 4 AM from my backdoor using a Nikon D810A camera and 24 mm f/3.5 PC-E lens (ISO 800, 24 mm, f/4, 4 sec). At one point I had to move the camera away from the door during a heavy downpour. Time-lapse video created from the in camera jpg images using Photoshop CC. This was the fourth night in a row that we have had thunderstorms.
