That certainly is a belter - especially knowing how fast they fly !

Worth having the extra pixels to allow for cropping-Great detail and a nice sky

Hi David

A bird not often seen, let alone posted. Great POV showing the bird at it's best.

Still not 100% on the high ISO Canon offers, be interested to hear your views later David. Certainly the 7D is suffering from what I have seen.
