    Settings?
    So for a night shoot like this, presumably your 2.8 was the lens of choice. Assuming you shoot in manual at night, what have you found to be minimum acceptable shutter speed to eliminate motion blur for these big guys (I've recently found that 500 doesn't seem to cut it)? Wherever you had ISO pushed to, I didn't see much noise (I blew up a few of the night shots on your site).

    Very nice!

    I shot iso 1600-2000, MANUAL EXPOSURE shutter speed 650 -1000 depending where they were on field, there are hot spots with decent light and darker areas
    then I ran thru noise ninja
