Hi Alan,

Another cracker. Looks like the 20D is nailing the shots pretty well, who needs a 1D MKIII :wink:

Good Work

Regards

Rob

If you ask me, I'm never tired of birds in flight kind of images. So nothing to apologise about. The concentration on bird's face is great. That being said, I wonder if you continue to photograph after this image, as I imagine in next frame or two more of birds body would be visible.

Cheers,
Marko
