What a capture. I've been lucky enough to photograph some falcons in flight and I know how difficult it can be. Head turn is a nice bonus

Nice wing position and I love the head turn, Ken. Excellent job on the focus.

The larger version is just exquisite, Ken. Lovely detail throughout. Flight shots of falcons are tough; very nice wrk.

Thanks for your comments, it is not the easiest thing in the world to hand-hold this combination sad
