Hand held, Canon 1DX Canon 100-400mm Auto ISO 320 Manual mode 1/1000 sec f6.3, manual focus
I had been using Auto ISO and 1/1000 at f11 but the background was becoming a little intrusive hence the wider aperture.
All C&C welcome.

Hi Jon. Both of your flight shots are very cool - and not easy to accomplish! Nice head-to-tail sharpness and a good light angle. The extended legs add interest - was it about to land on something? I might suggest a tighter crop (unless this is already a heavy crop). I need to try the auto-ISO feature sometime - it would seem to have some advantages.

Hi Jonathan,
Another impressive flight shot and I know how tough theses are to come by. Great pose with the outstretched legs. Nice catch.

Thanks Allen and Steve, the venue proved to be very productive I came away with quite a number of sharp in flight shots.

Amazing shots and skills! Keep them coming!

The legs reaching out add interest.
