Just getting back into this photography lark after a couple of years off with bad apathy. Found this guy cruising around at my local haunt.

EOS 1D2, Sigma 180mm macro, f/8.

This is one of the clearest, sharpest inflight shots I have seen.

Hi Richard,

Welcome back!!

WOW. This is a stunning shot. looks like you have got rid of any "ring rust" fairly quickly and slotted straight back in.

Love everything about it.

Regards

Rob

Impressive stuff with a 180mm, must have been a friendly one, I can't spot the wire

Superb in-flight shot with just the right amount of wing blur.
