Wowzers :eek:

Thats damn good that is (y)

Pin sharp, spot on exposure....
 
Thanks
I only had around a 2 seconds then it dived and was gone. Took around 5 frames, this was the best one of the bunch.
 
i love birds of prey, its a coincidence really as i saw a kestrel when i was fishing yesterday :)

Great pic, 11/10 i give you for that!
 
that is awsome!!

I am so in awe of those of you who photograph birds. Just something I've never had the talent to do.

Take it you know that because she is a tame/falconer's bird ... :shrug:

Still a super image though PL ... (y) ... spot on in most respects except I might be tempted to have a go at cloning out the jesses ... ;)


Is that straight out the gear or have you cropped much ... :thinking:




:p
 
Ye she is a team kestrel, the guy said she was 2 or 3 cant remember. He chuched it up in the air and she started to hover for a second and then down to the ground.
 
Really excellent
 
Tame bird or not, that's a great shot and much better than anything I've ever managed to achieve.
 
:clap:That is one super shot very well taken a standard i one day hope to achieve,well done--Jim:wave:
 
Glad you all like it, just got the one good shot from the 5 frame i took. Just shows you that you have to blast away at some point.
