Your photos from your day out have been fantastic and I for one have really enjoyined looking at them. This one is an absolute cracker and I love the comp of the shot with the 2 birds combined as they are! Having the focus spot on for both birds, especially the eyes is just excellent. Great work mate and keep 'em coming
Brian, no it isn't. The Raven's eye isn't actually that sharp and I think the focal plane hits the wing and is on the Kites head. I would have stated it in my techs...I have another shot from this event which I'll post at some stage.
BGS yes I've done it now, but only because the most descriptive word in the English language is a swear word Graeme you've done it again, you must spend a lot of time out in the elements to achieve this kind of work.
I'm envious of your Standard Set's.

Don't worry, I've nearly posted all the 10 images I kept out of the 6gb shot so you only have to endure a couple more!

The reason I ask, the sharpness throughout the shot at F5.6 with a 1.4TC is stunning!
