Thanks James ... :)

Let's just say it was a stack of ten frames from six sets shot (720 frames ... !)

Stacking certainly worked for you. My seeing is again lousy today.

Very nice FD images Steve :bow

I'd try to image despite the seeing...pretty amazing what can be pulled out of the video clips with the software we have.

Believe me Brian , I've never let little things like bad seeing , clouds , thick fog or low winter elevation deter me from getting a shot ... :lol:

I only shoot with a DSLR in single frames by the way , not video ... ;)
