D8 200-400mm @340mm F6.7 1/2000 ISO 560 handheld

A pair of Gadwells taking flight and I managed to get both in the same frame and reasonably sharp. Taken at Lacassine NWR.

Great capture. If you cropped off the right suggest you add canvas for them to fly into. If not, this image may be a little too challenging on which to add canvas. Keep up the good work! :toast:
