Red Kite
Canon EOS 1D MKIII, 600mm f4 IS, 1.4x converter, G1548, f5.6, 1/1000, ISO 400.

Hi All,

Finally got to Gigrin Farm Tuesday, a place I've wanted to visit for some time but due to one thing or another not got there. Weather was a bit changeable from sunshine to grey cloud, so kept me on my toes. I was surprised how difficult it was to single one out and get a clean background !!

All comments welcome

Regards

Rob

Looks good from here, a place I have never gotten to either.
