Good Luck and Good Light!

Hello Steve,...Amazing capture...using this type of capture shows excellent frozen moments with interesting details. I think mostly appropriate for documentary purposes.

Thanks for sharing

Hi Steve,

A unique and interesting shot of a rarely photographed species (especially when in flight). Nicely done!

Cheers...
