Still there is a wonderful feeling of flight and motion. V

These are the ones that keeps us coming back for more. :^)
Very nice, nevertheless.

This is great Vern - it shows the speed of the bird wonderfully...

What you captured is superb, Vern..
Vickie BROWN13-Feb-2013 18:05
And this is still beautiful shot! V

Hell, the last time I photographed a bird it was distinctly visible just completely out of frame. At least you got a bit of this one. Nice colour.

Whooops! Fast flier!

If you had the larger frame of the D3 you might have gotten all of it.
Graham 12-Feb-2013 23:24
now that was close Vern

But you got the eye! I think the "cropping" adds a sense of mystery! :)
Roger Bailey12-Feb-2013 22:26
The one that got away!
Ruth Voorhis12-Feb-2013 22:02
Its back end is nice and sharp, lol Oh well...

Reminds me of one I had with A great Blue..minus its head
Ronald Bijtenhoorn12-Feb-2013 21:13
That would have been a fantastic shot!

Sometimes happens to me as well when zooming in too much.or reacting too late.
Darn,the sharpness is so good..
Walter Otto Koenig12-Feb-2013 20:38
Well you gave us a taste of it, and the parts you did get are nice and sharp.
Clarence King12-Feb-2013 20:36
Well almost a great shot. Don't you hate when that happens! v
Laura Milholland12-Feb-2013 20:18
I hate when that happens too, Vern. ;) What you got of him looks great.
Bea.12-Feb-2013 20:07
Darn it Vern, but what you got is pretty good.
