I like this a lot Phil, very well taken showing great detail too, a shot I would be very pleased with

Are you aware of the dust spot close to the top edge on the right

Hi Phil, I like this very much too! A wonderful sense of action. Is the image cropped or is it full frame?
Either way

Hi Phil
nice sequence flight shot with plenty of detail in the bird's plumage.

Nice to get them with some separation . Haven't been over there this winter - are them many geese & swans around?

Hi Pete not not quite just a small amount from the left hand edge and a tiny bit from the top for composition.

Hi Nick there were good numbers of geese and swans today also very good number of pintail which is what I really went for to get some in-flight shots.

Hi vince I had not noticed the dust bunny thank's.

Excellent shot Phil - beautifully composed and exposed - like the wing tip blur for a sense of some action

Great looking shot.Looks like they were coming in to land aswell.

Love that DOF.

Hi Phil,

Great action shot. Just goes to show you don't need sunlight to create a superb wildlife photo.

Nice one... the slight blur of the wingtips adds to the sense of movement... Like it
