Last one of the flight series - Sandhill Crane - S.W Florida

I have several other flight images but this one will end the flight series. What I really like about this image is the "fly by" peaceful feeling to it, not to mention the beautiful warm light, eye contact, colorful BG and wings position.

I hope you enjoyed the series. Its now time to post the ground images staring with "The Dance"

Hope you like it!

Canon 40D, 500mm L @ f/5.6, 1/800 sec, ISO 400, RAW, Tripod, almost full frame.

Thanks!

I like this one, too. Great light, pose, details and the BG works well. Great series, thanks for sharing!

I've seen these birds in maybe ten different places around South Florida, but never seen one fly. Once I saw three walking along the shoulder of I-75. You must know a great place, or know something about their behaviour.

Superb angle of flight, and love the light and colours in this. I have enjoyed your series tremendously. Well done Maxis.

I like your crane series Maxis. Funny but I've never seen a crane against a green BG before.
