    shot with the brick and 300 f4 with 1.4x handheld. Cloudy day. Wish it were more of an angle that he approached me with, and some blue skies would have helped.



    original.

    This angle does give you a chance to study the aerodynamics of this bird even though it might not be the best from a photographic standpoint. Good capture.

    Re: Hey Harris
