A Trio of Whoopers
1D2n, 600mm f4 is x2.0 tc, 1/1600s, f8, iso 400. Slight crop.

As before, I should have closed down a little - hope to try again!

Ian its a nice image, would have liked to see the bird's head at the back seperated from the one flying in front. Also i find the image rather noisy, but still a nice flight shot.

Nice shot, shame the heads are not seperated, but a better effort than I have managed!!

A good image Ian but as has been previously stated the third swan does tend to detract from the overall appeal.

I like the contrast between the birds and the darker sky behind and the blues and yellows. I also agree with the other comments on the birds head and noise. Tristan
