Well, this photo won't win awards for colors and detail, but the fact that it was possible to capture it at all way after sundown (6:25 pm) is a testament to the current state of technology of DSLRs. If you'd notice, Neon already has his on-board flash up to help illuminate the BIFs of the dark. Gosh, I can still remember how grainy ISO 400 film was! ;D ;D ;D 5D2 + 500 f4 IS + 1.4x TC, 700 mm, f/5.6, 1/15 sec, ISO 25600, processed and NR'ed to death:

He he he, Thanks Ka Mastah for making me your model ;D ;D ;D So that you won't be wondering what I was taking and happy about, here it is. When the CPH flew past us it perched on a nearby bush. Since there was virtually no useful light anymore I experimented and made a "Hail Marry shot" took out the on-board flash and see what will come out. f4, 2.0 sec, ISO 320

Mwahaha.... I was wondering why the CPH has a darker chest in your photo, then I realized your on-board flash was blocked by the lens hood knob!!!!
Hehehe.... just kidding of course, nice capture, looks like no shot is impossible these days.

Hmmmm ... :-) Hehehe.... the going rate for kidneys now go as high as PHP 300K per piece. You can buy 2 units of 5D2 (one is for HD video, the other for stills, each backing up the other), some hi-cap. CF cards, a lot of batteries, a video head and some more insurance just in case the remaining kidney malfunctions. ;D ;D ;D
