This guy gave me lots of opportunities. I was a bit disappointed that this was the only series that really came out well and unfortunately, the nice clouds that were in the background for the others weren’t present at this angle. I’m posting 4 images in the sequence just for fun. These are cropped and they stand up to a bit closer crop, but I wanted to keep the feel that the bird was up in the sky.
I thought it was cool that there was still a fair amount of wing blur at this shutter speed.
Specific Feedback Requested
Anything.
